'Quietly triumphant.' Donal Ryan 'Ambitious and gentle.' Belinda
McKeon 'A terrific book.' Michael Harding In May 2020, John Connell
finds himself, like so many others, confined to his local area, the
opportunity to freely travel and socialise cut short. His attention
turns to the Camlin river - an ever-present source of life for his
town's inhabitants and, for John, a site of boyhood adventure,
first love, family history and local legend. He decides to canoe
its course with his friend, Sunday Times journalist Peter
Geoghegan, a two-day trip requiring physical exertion and mental
resilience. As the world grows still around them, the river
continues to teem with life - a symphony of buzzing mayfly and
jumping trout. During their meander downstream, John reflects on
his life: his travels, his past relationships and his battle with
depression, as well as on Irish folklore, geopolitics and
philosophy. The Stream of Everything is both a reverie and a
celebration of close observation; a winding, bucolic account of the
summer we discovered home.
