(be)longing by Daniel Hill pet lovers the speaker-narrators of The RosebudCymru is a nation steeped in history and linguistic tradition. From the Mabinogion to the tale of Bedd Gelert, it is also a nation grounded in mythology and folklore. This chapbook highlights such tales and integrates them into the modern age. Not a revival, nor a retelling, but a recontextualisation of how myth and lore still thread themselves into the seams of modern life. The poems use myth as a method of exploration of a modern Welsh identity.
