WINNER OF THE 2023 JAMES CROPPER WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR NATURE WRITING 'Unparalleled.' THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE 'A true masterpiece.' TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT 'A tour de force.' GUY SHRUBSOLE 'Quietly courageous.' PATRICK BARKHAM 'Lyrical, wholehearted and wise.' LEE SCHOFIELD 'A knockout. I loved it.' MELISSA HARRISON 'Honest, raw and moving.' SOPHIE PAVELLE 'An extraordinary book by an extraordinary author.' CHRIS JONES 'A book of wit, wonder and of wisdom.' NICK ACHESON 'Beautiful.' NICOLA CHESTER A visit to the rapid where she lost a cherished friend unexpectedly reignites Amy-Jane Beer's love of rivers setting her on a journey of natural, cultural and emotional discovery. On New Year's Day 2012, Amy-Jane Beer's beloved friend Kate set out with a group of others to kayak the River Rawthey in Cumbria. Kate never came home, and her death left her devoted family and friends bereft and unmoored. Returning to visit the Rawthey years later, Amy realises how much she misses the connection to the natural world she always felt when on or close to rivers, and so begins a new phase of exploration. The Flow is a book about water, and, like water, it meanders, cascades and percolates through many lives, landscapes and stories. From West Country torrents to Levels and Fens, rocky Welsh canyons, the salmon highways of Scotland and the chalk rivers of the Yorkshire Wolds, Amy-Jane follows springs, streams and rivers to explore tributary themes of wildness and wonder, loss and healing, mythology and history, cyclicity and transformation. Threading together places and voices from across Britain, The Flow is a profound, immersive exploration of our personal and ecological place in nature.

「潮濕、親密，有著腹股溝般的裂縫， 生命在這裡相互追逐，流水滲透而河流高漲。」 瞬息萬變的大自然帶領我們看見萬物之間的連結， 而人的一切來自大地，水則是真正的生命之源。 流、鄉村風光與生活間，打開情緒最豐沛的自然書寫 ──既科學又詩情，結合自然書寫與回憶錄的感性佳作！ ──《大地之下》作者羅伯特•麥克法倫、《BBC鄉村雜誌》盛讚！ 愛咪熱愛冒險，曾經每逢週末便來到水邊，與親朋好友划著獨木舟順河而下、在開放水域中暢游。直到摯友在一次獨木舟之旅遇難過世，愛咪陷入巨大沉痛，從此遠離水邊。然而，多年後回到事發現場，沿著河畔行走，看進湍湍水底，一股強烈的感受在愛咪心中油然而生──河流長期以來豐富了她的生命，即便死亡令她人生崩塌，河流仍舊在那裡，持續不輟地滋養無數生命與心靈。 「我見過流水自由流動，被大壩阻擋，或截彎取直。 我見過它們氾濫和乾涸。 但我真的認識流水嗎？」 在本書中，身為生物學家的愛咪從兒時最早對水的印象說起，一步步記述起英國西南部激流與濕地的生態，威爾斯的山谷與水壩，以及蘇格蘭的鮭魚洄游、起源於北方約克郡丘陵的白堊河等獨特景致。在深深著迷於大自然的同時，她也致力探問人類對環境的介入，思索水庫建設遭致的洪災、開放和限制河流通行權的爭議，以及野地恢復與野生動物復育工作所帶來的改變。 與眾不同的是，愛咪在其逐水之旅中深入尋訪了作家與藝術家作品裡的河流景觀，思索前人記錄土地與生命的方式，並寫下自己的觀察；佇立在那，她屬於當下，卻同時感覺置身另一個季節和世紀…… 她寫畫家米雷筆下，莎劇《哈姆雷特》中的奧菲莉亞自溺而死的河流── 「霍格斯米爾河現在是棕色的、太過筆直，以橘色交通錐裝飾……我心裡暗做大失所望的準備，但陡然映入眼簾的景象令人意外地魅力十足。現在如同那時，植被濃密。眼前有好幾叢亮綠色的地楊梅，早開的漢紅魚腥草添加點點色彩。一隻翠鳥飛往上游，如一道猛衝而來的超自然藍色火焰。」 她寫畫家杜勒畫中，棲於河畔、朝生暮死的蜉蝣── 「我確定杜勒看到的景象一定如同我所描述。他版畫中的蜉蝣，據說是嬰兒耶穌基督的象徵，天堂與人間的具體連結。牠們的翅膀快速嗡嗡振動，看起來宛若上升的天使。飛到最高處時，牠們如同降落傘般打開翅膀，張開尾須往下掉。牠們飛高時大約花一秒鐘，下降時一秒鐘，不斷反覆。」 她寫作家柯南?道爾小說中獵犬的吠聲，靈感來自河流的駭人聲響── 「流水傾倒過達特密特下游深谷，製造出獨特聲音。此聲罕少被聽見，被視為惡兆。傳說聲稱，達特河必須定期奪走一條人命，而『達特的哭喊』就是這份饑餓的表徵。這哭喊背後的脈絡與《巴斯克維爾的獵犬》雖有不同，但同等駭人；獵犬的故事來自威斯特獵犬的神話，據說牠在西達特河的威斯特曼森林徘徊不去。」 以回憶作為動力與指引，愛咪橫越並探訪了英國各處河流及其流經之處。沿著主流與支流探索大自然，原野的生命、造物的神奇讓她開始思索人類與河流之間的緊密關係，乃至萬物的循環往復等更加宏觀的課題。而在反思生命帶給她的考驗之際，愛咪也讓自己沉浸於捕捉河水、魚群、鳥叫蟲鳴、山林谷地的風光。當愛咪體會到自己與萬物之間的深刻連結，不僅讓她重獲尋覓已久的平靜，也得以謙遜地與土地對話。 因此，本書不只是一本個人回憶錄，更是細膩入微的自然觀察。作者的文字兼具感性與理性，重新擁抱流水的過程就如同一段透過河流療傷的感官之旅，也是一趟深入內在身心與外在自然世界的旅程。
