From the creators of Morvoren and Mordardh comes this new poetry anthology, capturing the enthralling nature of the sea. Some of Cornwall’s children and their equally creative parents joined poets to explore happy memories of days at the beach. Cornwall’s dramatic coastline, thrust headlong into the ocean, means you are never far from the water. What songs does the ocean sing? What secrets are whispered by the waves? What mysterious creatures swim beneath its glittering surface?

In this collection, the Mor Poets capture the draw of the ocean through the words of those who ride its waves. Seeking to understand what surfing truly means, these poems speak of universal hopes and fears, dreams and contradictions, all found in the transformative act of catching a wave.

Ella Walsworth-Bell and her co-authors have created thirty-two poems exploring the magic and beauty of sea swimming in Cornwall. Whether you dip a toe, or dive right in; stroll the shoreline, or race through the surf; relax on soft sand, or simply consider the sea temperature from afar… immersed in Morvoren, you will find yourself reflected here.
