The Stick Maker Tales
T1344314091
Shepherd Geth Roberts might be getting on in years, but he still lives alone, high in the Elan Valley above the market town of Rhayader. He is a born story-teller who has spent his whole life working his wild and windswept farm, hidden away in the timeless Cambrian Mountains beneath the awesome beauty of the Elan night skies, unpolluted by city lights. But now Geth faces his greatest ever challenge: his sight is failing and if he can't see then his life has no purpose - he can't work the farm or carve the exquisite Shepherd's Crooks for which he's famous.
