One of the most quoted religious poets of the modern era, R S Thomas enjoys a huge literary following.
Not just a poetic guide to one of the most popular pilgrim destinations in Wales, but to the landscapes and seasons of the human soul.
All royalties go towards maintaining St Hywyn's Church in Aberdaron where R S Thomas was parish priest.

Editorial Reviews

▼▲

"With a double page spread for each poem, Jim Cotter's unusual layout gives a sense of space and slow contemplation of each poem and its meaning...Etched By Silence is a pleasure to use for quiet meditation and personal musing." -- Magnet

'If you love poetry and can see within its words a way to consider a deeper spirituality, then this book is no doubt for you.' -- Together
