Over the past three years Alice Oswald has been recording
conversations with people who live and work on the River Dart in
Devon. Using these records and voices as a sort of poetic census,
she creates a narrative of the river, tracking its life from source
to sea. The voices are wonderfully varied and idiomatic - they
include a poacher, a ferryman, a sewage worker and milk worker, a
forester, swimmers and canoeists - and are interlinked with
historic and mythic voices: drowned voices, dreaming voices and
marginal notes which act as markers along the way.
