The Edge of Cymru – A Journey
by Julie Brominicks
Seren Books £12.99
BORN in Shrewsbury and a student at Aberystwyth University, Julie Brominicks went on to spend years working on environmental projects before deciding to spend time traversing the coast and borderlands of her adopted country.
The Edge of Cymru is the result of that lengthy walk, and a fantastic travelogue it is too. Funny, moving, idiosyncratic and occasionally dark, it’s a wonderful portrait of contemporary Wales and for those reasons alone it makes for a pleasurable and insightful read.
