A White Veil for Tomorrow won the 1999 Prose Medal at Wales' National Eisteddfod, one the country's most distinguished literary awards for books written in the Welsh language. Now translated into English, this collection of eight inter-related stories can now be enjoyed by a wider readership. Sonia Edwards' characters spin out their interwoven lives, the shifting perspective of each story serving to illuminate another facet of truth and experience. At the heart of each there is the poet Dafydd and Gwyneth, "his eternal little sister, " a beautiful but childlike woman, whose vulnerability touches the lives of those around her with both love and the tragedy of love's losses. Past and present, memory and poetry, passion and guilt are the threads that hold these characters in the thrall of Edwards' spellbinding narrative.
