Böcker av Dr. David Evans

This book tells the dramatic story of The Holy Bible, tracing its roots to the South Wales Valleys, an industrialized, working-class region of the British isles in which the Manic Street Preachers spent their formative years. Drawing on the Welsh concepts of hwyl (an access of creative brilliance) and hiraeth (a not-entirely-helpful tendency to linger on the past) the author argues that The Holy Bible can be seen as a meditation on the uses and abuses of history.
