Christopher Meredith’s Air Histories starts in the Stone Age and ends in the future. It’s marked by formal diversity and a wide range of subjects, with the personal alongside the impersonal and the experimental alongside well-known forms, including some translations from the Welsh. Throughout, it engages the rich meanings of its title, touching on the elemental and on historical time, as well as music and story, meditating on human creativity and its fallibilities. Gorgeous and original descriptions of nature in Wales are also prominently featured, particularly the Black Mountains, near the author’s home.
