The first collection of poems for adults by Mererid Hopwood, the first female to win the Chair at the National Eisteddfod. -- Gwasg Gomer

Mae Miss Prydderch a'i charped hud yn eu holau yn barod am antur newydd. Mae'r Haint wedi disgyn ar y wlad sy'n golygu bod rhaid i bawb fod yn ofalus yn yr ysgol a chadw pellter oddi wrth ei gilydd. Ond dyw hynny ddim yn stopio'r dosbarth rhag mynd ar antur i fyd arallfydol. Ac mae pethau rhyfedd yn digwydd yn y byd go iawn hefyd.

A lively and colourful book that aims to teach the ancient art of composing poetry in strict metre to young poets.

Dyma ail gyfrol o gerddi gan y Prifardd Mererid Hopwood. Yn y casgliad hwn cawn flas ar ddeng mlynedd o ganu caeth a rhydd ers cyhoeddi Nes Draw (Gomer, 2015). Rhwng y cloriau mae cerddi am heddwch, anghyfiawnder, yr amgylchfyd, bod yn fam ac yn fam-gu - a llawer mwy.

Bluebeard', in which women are slaughtered by a monstrous husband and their bodies hidden in a horrible chamber, is the most hair-raising of tales; yet with its happy ending, it also has a utopian force. Using the idiom of literary criticism, the study considers Bluebeard texts as a seismograph of gender politics and of the process of civilization from seventeenth-century France to 1990s Germany, in a broad range of canonical and non-canonical, often forgotten texts. The study discusses Charles Perrault's French version of 1697, through Ludwig Tieck's versions of 1797 and classic versions by the Grimms and Ludwig Bechstein, to nineteenth-century romantic fiction, the savagery of High Modernism, and twentieth-century versions such as that of the Surrealist Unica Zürn. While the focus is on literature in German, this is the first full-length study published in any language of the history of Bluebeard, and it redefines the canon and our interpretations of this key tale.
