All Rivers Run Free

Natasha Carthew

'Raw, passionate, hallucinatory' Rachel Holmes
'Extraordinary, beautiful and wild allegory for our times' Katharine Norbury
'Hypnotic and powerful' Fanny Blake, Daily Mail

A woman on the edge of the sea finds a girl on the edge of life.

On the flooded coast of Cornwall, Ia Pendilly ekes out a fierce life in a childless marriage, as rough and stubborn as the sea. When a strange young girl washes up on the beach, Ia's rescue is only the beginning of a dangerous journey ­- one that will take them downriver, into the fringes of a collapsing society and for Ia, towards something she hopes might be love.

A vision of the near-future and an odyssey of motherhood, All Rivers Run Free is a true original from a powerful new voice..
