Branwen – Aiden Saunders

Literature

The tale of Branwen, from the second branch of the Mabinogi, is one of love, treachery, magic and giants, with epic battles, fantastical voyages and daring rescues!
This ancient legend has been told and retold through the centuries. Its roots burrow deep into Wales’ faraway Celtic past and is thought to be the inspiration for many legends and tales.

This book is a graphic representation of the second branch of the Mabinogi, Branwen, daughter of Llŷr. The book aims to introduce children and young people to the tale and to retell the story in a visual and emotional way for modern audiences using artwork derived from real historical artefacts.
• Bilingual text
• Colourful, bright and striking artwork with subtle references to ancient Celtic life
