it was amazing

‘Clear’ is a sublime and beautiful piece of literature. Over a mere 146 pages, Carys Davies has been able to deliver a story filled with so much emotion and depth. All set against the backdrop of the split of the Scottish Church and the Scottish land clearances, it focuses primarily on the relationship between three people. Themes such as isolation, solitude, landscape, language, friendship, family and ultimately hope all shine through to tell a story which is easy to cherish – particularly the way in which the story concludes! Highly recommended and can’t wait to go back and read her other books!

Debbie Y Beautifully written, Gareth! This sounds very atmospheric. My kinda book.


Gareth Thanks Debbie 😊 Atmospheric captures it perfectly


Mandi A Read every word of her work in the order they have been written. Carys is such a mistress of this genre, it grieves me to read people referring to it as a little story or that it should be longer.
