AMY JEFFS in conversation with Martin Latham | 'Wild' | Author Talks

Amy Jeffs speaks with Martin Latham at Waterstones Canterbury. She wove her folksongs into the conversation adding a new dimension to these evocative short stories inspired by objects and texts from medieval times In Wild, Amy Jeffs journeys - on foot and through medieval texts - from landscapes of desolation to hope, offering the reader an insight into a world at once distant and profoundly close to home. The seven chapters, entitled Earth, Ocean, Forest, Beast, Fen, Catastrophe, Paradise, open with fiction and close with reflection. They blend reflections of travels through fen, forest and cave, with retelling of medieval texts that offer rich depictions of the natural world. From the Old English elegies to the englynion and immrama of the Celtic world - stories that largely represent figures whose voices are not generally heard in the corpus of medieval literature: women, outcasts, animals. Martin Latham is the manager of Waterstones Canterbury and the author of Kent’s Strangest Tales, Londonopolis and his ode to books, The Bookseller's Tale. The Bookseller's Tale was published in 2020 and was named a Book of the Year by the Spectator and the Evening Standard. Hosted by Waterstones Canterbury, Rose Lane.
