Más información sobre el libro

A historical novel based on the life of Hedd Wyn, the famous Welsh poet. A farmer's son from Trawsfynydd, he fought in the trenches in the First World War and was killed at Passchendaele, and is famous in Wales for being awarded the 1917 National Eisteddfod Chair shortly after his death. We see the huge impact of the war on village life through the eyes of his 14-year-old sister Anni. With a liberal helping of humor to offset the tragedy. Ages 12 and up.
