The Flow by Amy-Jane Beer7/6/2023 In this beautifully written nature narrative, Amy-Jane details her visits – sometimes alone, sometimes with others – to rivers of different types and character, exploring them in different ways including on foot, swimming, paddling, canyoning, and by canoe or kayak. She starts tentatively and close to home and then visits rivers further afield that she knows well – the Tees, the Wharfe, the Conwy, and the Lune – before she feels able to move onto rivers she doesn't know well, including the Tweed, the Parrett, the Otter and the Wye. Years later, missing the emotional connection to the natural world she always felt when she was close to rivers, Amy-Jane decides to reignite her love of rivers. One of those friends, Kate, didn't come home leaving a devoted husband, a young daughter and a wide circle of friends bereft, bewildered and unmoored. On New Year's Day, 2012, Amy-Jane Beer and a group of her best friends set out to kayak a small river in the Howgill Fells.
