Embark on a mesmerising journey through the liminal realm betwixt land and sea in Yuvan Aves' extraordinary debut, 'Intertidal'. This captivating exploration of coastal ecosystems, climate, and self-reflection comes highly praised by literary luminaries Robert Macfarlane and William Dalrymple.
With prose as fluid as the tides themselves, Aves unveils a hidden world teeming with life and wonder. From the nocturnal chorus of frogs to the unexpected sight of butterflies far out at sea, readers are immersed in the intricate tapestry of intertidal life. The author's keen observations extend beyond nature, encompassing the resilient coastal communities fighting to preserve their shared habitat.
'Intertidal' challenges us to reconsider our values and relationship with the natural world. It beckons us to attune ourselves to the urgent call of our changing climate and to shed the outdated cultural and political paradigms that have proven ecologically ruinous. Set against the backdrop of beaches, marshes, and the untamed landscapes of the mind, this remarkable work celebrates nature's restorative power and explores the profound implications of reclaiming our colonised ecology.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
