Beyond the Fell Wall by Richard Skelton
“A graceful meditation upon the relationship between landscape, language and sound.” The Spectator
“I know of no other author, musician, composer, film-maker whose work touches on alchemy.” Caught by the River
Beyond The Fell Wall is a poetic enquiry into the inanimate life of a landscape – its unheard melodies and unseen movements. It considers both vast geological epochs and brief moments of intimacy, and in turn it asks us to consider sentience in all things – animal, vegetable and mineral. At its heart is the fell wall itself – a vast, serpentine entity. A vessel for the lives, voices and myths of the landscape. The dark heart about which all of life and death revolves.
