'Many Rivers to Cross' is the debut novel from Dylan Moore, editor of the 'welsh agenda,' and Hay Festival International Fellow. Written following a period volunteering at the Sanctuary Project in Newport, and partly based on interviews with asylum seekers and refugees, the novel traces a series of journeys – migrations across time and space – from the streets of Pillgwenlly, Newport to the ‘Jungle’ camp at Calais, and from Ethiopia to the island of Lampedusa.
