Fabulous evening yesterday @rgsibg.bsky.social and thank you @robgmacfarlane.bsky.social for a truly brilliant and enlightening talk (expertly facilitated by @horatioclare.bsky.social ). Can’t wait to get stuck into the book.
Is A River Alive? is published today, 1 May.
It’s about the lives, deaths & rights of rivers—& how our fate flows with that of water & always has.
To the people, places & rivers whose ideas run through its pages, thank you so much.
