麻豆社

Shortlisted for the 2025 Goldsmiths Prize, this elemental novel is from the twice-nominated Booker author of BURNTCOAT and THE WOLF BORDER.
Helm, the only named wind in the UK, has scoured the Eden Valley since the dawn of time. When people arrive, Helm becomes the subject of their myth and folklore but, as the Anthropocene takes us all past the point of no return, Helm鈥檚 very existence is threatened.

Catherine's husband remains unmoved by the solstice harnessing power of Long Meg. Helm pays a destructive visit and leaves a gift for NaNay鈥檚 tribe.
