Publisher's Synopsis
An urgent, evocative collection of writings celebrating the source of all life: freshwater, our most precious resource.
Dive into the depths of a Berlin lake, journey from the Thames to the banks of the Nile, and meet Black Mary, the keeper of a lost 17th-century healing well in London. Featuring great writers including Vandana Shiva, Rebecca Solnit, Ocean Vuong and Lucy Jones on ecological despair and resilience, privatisation, pollution - and beauty.
These are the vital myths and memories that flow through water.
