Coup de coeur
(Fiction), by Niamh
Lyrical, original, and poetic, this book allows the reader to inhabit not only human characters, but also animals and elements of nature, with an opening chapter from the perspective of lightning! Translated from Catalan, When I Sing, Mountains Dance highlights not only writing as an art, but translation as its own art form. This piece inspires admiration for and appreciation of our natural surroundings, with a strong focus on the relationship between humanity and the natural world; elements of nature are truly part of the mountain community that we follow in the story. It is a glorious celebration of the joys and sorrows of the life cycle, perfect for those retreating to remote surroundings this summer!
A ferociously imaginative, polyphonic debut: amid the rugged beauty of the Pyrenees, the mountains' inhabitants - both human and non-human - bear witness to the tragedies that befall one family
