Five Rivers Met on a Wooded Plain (Broché)

"There exists in all of us a song waiting to be sung which is as heart-stopping and vertiginous as the peak of the cathedral. That is the meaning of this quiet city, where the spire soars into the blue, where rivers and stories weave into one another, where lives intertwine." One quiet evening in Salisbury, the peace is shattered by a serious car crash. At that moment, five lives collide - a flower-seller, a schoolboy, an army wife, a security guard, a widower - all facing their own personal disasters.
As one of those lives hangs in the balance, Norris draws the extraordinary voices of these seemingly ordinary people together into a web of love, grief, disenchantment and hope that is startlingly perceptive about the human heart.
