The Flow: Rivers, Water and Wildness – WINNER OF THE 2023 WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR NATURE WRITING, invites you to embark on an unforgettable literary journey through Britain’s waterways, masterfully penned by Amy-Jane Beer.

This award-winning book is not just a narrative; it's a profound exploration of the delicate dance between humanity and nature. Beer revisits the River Rawthey in Cumbria, a site of personal tragedy, and from this poignant starting point, she takes readers on a transformative odyssey that traverses the wild landscapes of Wales, the peaceful Levels and Fens, and beyond.

  • Engaging Themes: Delve into universal themes of wildness, loss, healing, mythology, and transformation that resonate deeply with every nature lover.
  • Vivid Imagery: Experience the stunning diversity of Britain’s landscapes, from the roaring torrents of the West Country to the salmon-rich waters of Scotland.
  • Personal Connection: Be drawn into Beer’s intimate reflections, which create a powerful bond with readers who share a passion for nature.

Recognized as 'unparalleled' by the esteemed Wainwright Prize committee, The Flow has garnered acclaim from prominent literary figures, making it a quintessential read for those who cherish the intersection of nature and storytelling. This book not only celebrates the breathtaking beauty of our rivers but also challenges readers to contemplate their own relationship with the natural world.

Embark on a transformative journey with The Flow and discover the profound impact of water in shaping both our landscapes and our spirits.

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.’
