When Swallows Return

by John Jones, Bethan Lloyd-Jones (Translator), Kitty Lloyd-Jones (Translator)

'Earth's crammed with heaven, and every common bush afire with God.' These words of Elizabeth Browning are illustrated in the sotries contained in this collection of country parables by the author of In the shadow of Aran and In the shelter of the fold, also published by Bryntirion Press. It explores a world of rowan trees, dragonflies, swallows, carrion crows and the beautiful red kite and draws out spiritual truths from the common scenes and happenings of a Welsh hill farm, in a natural yet absorbing manner.
