-I'm Robin McBryde. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
-I played rugby for Wales -between 1994 and 2005. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:47 | |
-I'm currently Wales's forwards -coach. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:50 | |
-I also belong -to the Gorsedd of the Bards. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:54 | |
-I don't swear or curse, -unless they lose, of course! | 0:00:58 | 0:01:02 | |
-It's given us a bit more confidence, -knowing if we perform well... | 0:01:04 | 0:01:09 | |
-This is Llanfechell village square. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
-I was raised here -until I was eight or nine years old. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
-The post office and shop -across the way... | 0:01:22 | 0:01:26 | |
-..were the hub of the village. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:28 | |
-They still are to this day. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
-Y Cefn Glas pub is behind me. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
-My friends and I gathered here. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:36 | |
-We were free -to roam around the village. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
-This is the river where I'd spend -hours playing in the water... | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
-..and on the riverbank -under the bridge... | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
-..with my two -closest friends in the village. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:05 | |
-Alun Lloyd and Stephen Humphries, -or Stephen Bach, lived nearby. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:10 | |
-The three of us would climb trees -and jump across the river. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:14 | |
-We had the freedom -to wander through the fields. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
-We had lots of fun -and I have many fond memories. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:22 | |
-We used to walk -and ride our bikes... | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
-..from Llanfechell to Cemaes... | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
-..and spend the day -playing on the beach. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
-We'd jump off the pier into the sea. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
-On a day like today, -there's no better place to be. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
-It's a world away... | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
-..from the upbringing Dewi and -Siriol had in the novel, Neb Ond Ni. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:58 | |
-I bought the book because it won -the Prose Medal at the Eisteddfod. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:12 | |
-I read the synopsis of the book... | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
-..and read a few pages. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:19 | |
-The dialogue contained Southwalian -and Northwalian dialects. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:23 | |
-It was nice and simple to read. | 0:03:24 | 0:03:27 | |
-It gave me a feel for the book. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
-It captivated me. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
-The story revolves around... | 0:03:33 | 0:03:35 | |
-..the two central characters - -Dewi and Siriol. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
-They are two remarkable children -with special needs. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
-They're very close and understand -one another better than anyone. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:49 | |
-The novel begins -and Dewi is missing. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:52 | |
-Only Siriol knows where he is. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:54 | |
-"Voices calling, lights bobbing like -shooting stars, Mam staring at me. | 0:03:54 | 0:04:00 | |
-"I wanted to say he was safe -under the Felin Ganol footbridge. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:05 | |
-"He'd gone to measure it with -the tape he was given as a present. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:09 | |
-"He would return at midnight. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:12 | |
-"But how could I? | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
-"And what did I say? -I said I knew nothing, as usual. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:22 | |
-"I tried not to look at my watch. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
-"I wanted it to be midnight. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:27 | |
-"He arrived back, -grinning as usual. | 0:04:29 | 0:04:32 | |
-"He sauntered back with a -what's-the-problem look on his face. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:37 | |
-"'You'll be sent away forever if you -don't behave yourself, sonny Jim.' | 0:04:37 | 0:04:43 | |
-"I started crying -and Mam put her arm around me. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
-"'Don't worry, dear Siriol, -it's an empty threat.' | 0:04:49 | 0:04:53 | |
-"But on the way back, she -whispered something in Dad's ear. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:57 | |
-"If Dai sent the little boy away... | 0:04:58 | 0:05:01 | |
-"..she'd break her heart. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:03 | |
-"That's what she said. -And she's completely right. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:07 | |
-"If Dewi was sent away forever... | 0:05:07 | 0:05:10 | |
-"No, I refuse to think about it. -It hurts too much." | 0:05:10 | 0:05:14 | |
-The novel is set in the 1970s... | 0:05:17 | 0:05:19 | |
-..and Dewi and Siriol are -the same age as I was at the time. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:24 | |
-It was easy for me to empathize -with them as characters... | 0:05:24 | 0:05:29 | |
-..and easy for me to conjure up -images in my mind, like Dewi. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:34 | |
-I'm very fond of the style... | 0:05:36 | 0:05:38 | |
-..because we see -different situations... | 0:05:38 | 0:05:41 | |
-..through the eyes -of the five central characters... | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
-..and are privy -to their inner thoughts... | 0:05:45 | 0:05:49 | |
-..instead of open conversations. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:51 | |
-As a man -who likes to mull things over... | 0:05:52 | 0:05:55 | |
-..the book appealed to me... | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
-..and made me think... | 0:05:58 | 0:06:00 | |
-..during the time I was reading it -and also after finishing it. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:05 | |
-What comes across... | 0:06:05 | 0:06:08 | |
-..is how cruel people can be... | 0:06:08 | 0:06:14 | |
-..without realizing. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
-Cruel things they say and do in -the company of these small children. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:21 | |
-Children with special needs... | 0:06:21 | 0:06:23 | |
-..are sensible enough -to know what's hurtful. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:27 | |
-That's something else... | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
-..that makes you think about -how you behave and act... | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
-..around children -with special needs. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:37 | |
-The novel is set -in a village similar to Llandwrog. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:44 | |
-I'm on my way there -to meet the author, Manon Rhys. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:48 | |
-I call on Sitting Bull to stand. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:52 | |
-The sun is shining today and there's -a picture of the sun on the cover. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:04 | |
-I'm guessing -there's a reason for that? | 0:07:05 | 0:07:09 | |
-Hand on heart, -this was my inspiration. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:12 | |
-It's the same sun that appears on -Dafydd Iwan Ac Edward's album cover. | 0:07:13 | 0:07:17 | |
-It's a collection -of children's songs. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:23 | |
-Cwm Rhyd Y Rhosyn -typifies the ideal village. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:27 | |
-The name is so pretty... | 0:07:28 | 0:07:29 | |
-..and it paints -a picture of beauty... | 0:07:30 | 0:07:32 | |
-..and happiness. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
-Dewch Am Dro -Ar Hyd Y Llwybr Troed... | 0:07:35 | 0:07:37 | |
-.."invites children to walk along -the footpath near the house... | 0:07:38 | 0:07:42 | |
-"..where we shall see many wonders." | 0:07:43 | 0:07:46 | |
-It's an invitation for children -to go and see these wonders. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
-It made me think about children -who maybe can't see. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:55 | |
-Another line of the song is, -"We'll have races in the meadow". | 0:07:55 | 0:08:01 | |
-But what about children -who can't run? | 0:08:01 | 0:08:04 | |
-I came up with -a character called Siriol... | 0:08:05 | 0:08:07 | |
-..who's wheelchair-bound -and partially blind. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:11 | |
-Her best friend is Dewi... | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
-..a little boy who can walk, run -and do everything children can do. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:18 | |
-But he suffers from what people -would nowadays call autism. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:23 | |
-But back in the 1970s... | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
-..Dewi wouldn't have -been given any support... | 0:08:28 | 0:08:31 | |
-..to help him deal with -the problems going on in his mind. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:37 | |
-That's the basis of the story. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:39 | |
-Dewi and Siriol -live in the village of Llan... | 0:08:40 | 0:08:43 | |
-..which is similar to Llandwrog... | 0:08:44 | 0:08:47 | |
-..where we're sitting at the moment. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:50 | |
-The theme for the Prose Medal -competition was Conflict. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:54 | |
-I've tried to convey that -the parents are trying their best... | 0:08:54 | 0:08:58 | |
-..to rebel against an inadequate -system for their children. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:02 | |
-But in the end, Siriol's mother -and Dai, Dewi's stepfather... | 0:09:02 | 0:09:07 | |
-..have to conform with that system. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
-Yes, that was apparent -in Siriol's mother. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:14 | |
-She wanted to find out -as much information as she could... | 0:09:15 | 0:09:19 | |
-..while the father -accepted the situation. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:22 | |
-He just wanted to deal with it. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
-There's one scene in the kitchen... | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
-..where Siriol's grandmother... | 0:09:31 | 0:09:33 | |
-..obviously knows that something's -wrong but doesn't like to ask. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:39 | |
-For some reason, Siriol's mother -hasn't said anything to her. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:44 | |
-Then comes the line, -"like a ticking bomb". | 0:09:45 | 0:09:48 | |
-I like that. It's ticking, -waiting for the bomb to explode. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:53 | |
-And the bomb does explode. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:55 | |
-As it says on the cover... | 0:09:56 | 0:09:58 | |
-.."an author that trusts -the reader's imagination." | 0:09:58 | 0:10:01 | |
-You have to come to -your own conclusions, in a way. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:05 | |
-That appealed to me too. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:07 | |
-It raises a lot of questions, so -I'm glad you're here to answer them! | 0:10:08 | 0:10:12 | |
-Thank you for the opportunity -to answer them... | 0:10:12 | 0:10:16 | |
-..but perhaps there are -no answers to some of them. | 0:10:16 | 0:10:20 | |
-I'm comfortable with that too. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
-It leaves it wide open -to the imagination. | 0:10:23 | 0:10:26 | |
-There are lots of sad -and emotional passages in the novel. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:33 | |
-One of those is when the children -are old enough to realize... | 0:10:33 | 0:10:38 | |
-..that they're not the same -as other children... | 0:10:38 | 0:10:42 | |
-..and that they have a disability. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
-"I can cope with them -calling me names... | 0:10:59 | 0:11:02 | |
-"..like Siriol Saucer Eyes -and Jam-Jar Glasses. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:07 | |
-"And I can cope with worse... | 0:11:08 | 0:11:10 | |
-"..like Billy Bunter's sister -in a wheelchair. | 0:11:10 | 0:11:15 | |
-"But seeing Mam and Dad suffer -is very difficult. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:19 | |
-"But that's what cruel people do. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:23 | |
-"They upset them and make them cry. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:26 | |
-"I see them holding hands -on the patio and crying. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:31 | |
-"Seeing your parents cry -isn't right. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:36 | |
-"There's something else too. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:41 | |
-"I know I'm the problem. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:44 | |
-"I'm to blame. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:47 | |
-"But I don't want to be a problem or -for people to think I'm a problem. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:52 | |
-"Mam and said have never said -or thought I was. | 0:11:52 | 0:11:57 | |
-"Dad says, 'No problem' to -everything. Others are the problem. | 0:11:57 | 0:12:02 | |
-"That's what I'm trying to believe, -but I'm failing miserably. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:07 | |
-"Because I am the problem, -and that's the end of it. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
-"I'm a big, ugly, clumsy problem... | 0:12:14 | 0:12:18 | |
-"..that can't walk -and has to wear thick glasses. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
-"I'll always be a problem -for as long as I live. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:25 | |
-"And that scares me." | 0:12:25 | 0:12:27 | |

-Hazel Walford Davies -adjudicated the Prose Medal... | 0:12:44 | 0:12:47 | |
-..when Neb Ond Ni -won first prize in 2011. | 0:12:47 | 0:12:50 | |
-This was a novel... | 0:12:50 | 0:12:52 | |
-..that didn't focus -on the state of rural Wales... | 0:12:53 | 0:12:56 | |
-..the Welsh-language crisis, -grandparents... | 0:12:57 | 0:13:00 | |
-..or the good old days -when Wales enjoyed a golden era... | 0:13:00 | 0:13:05 | |
-..and so on and so forth. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:07 | |
-It was something -completely different and fresh. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
-It was also striking... | 0:13:11 | 0:13:13 | |
-..because it expressed great truths -without moralizing or preaching. | 0:13:14 | 0:13:19 | |
-All those elements, -coupled with the novel's style... | 0:13:20 | 0:13:24 | |
-..which is innovative in terms -of Welsh-language literature... | 0:13:24 | 0:13:29 | |
-..was exceptionally fresh. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:32 | |
-In essence, what you have -is a series of soliloquies... | 0:13:32 | 0:13:36 | |
-..and a vivid imagination... | 0:13:36 | 0:13:38 | |
-..woven very adeptly into the novel. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:43 | |
-It's quite a complicated novel. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:45 | |
-It excels... | 0:13:46 | 0:13:48 | |
-..because Manon Rhys -trusts the reader's imagination. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:52 | |
-Few Welsh-language novels do that. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:55 | |
-Usually, -everything's in black and white. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:58 | |
-What I like about it is that it's -a delicate and suggestive novel. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:04 | |
-"I don't like mess. -It makes me sick. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:26 | |
-"Nobody cares -and that's why I get angry. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:29 | |
-"That's why I fly into a rage. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:31 | |
-"A vandal, like Dafydd Iwan. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:34 | |
-"Dai says I'm like -a Welsh-language extremist... | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
-"..defacing signs -and painting slogans. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:41 | |
-"'You'll wind up in jail.' | 0:14:42 | 0:14:44 | |
-"I wanted Dafydd Iwan's autograph. -I went up to him. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:48 | |
-"I said, 'I'm Dewi.' | 0:14:49 | 0:14:51 | |
-"'How are you, Dewi, -and where do you live?' | 0:14:51 | 0:14:54 | |
-"'Cwm Rhyd Y Rhosyn, halfway -between Lleyn and Bro Afallon.' | 0:14:55 | 0:15:00 | |
-"I didn't say that - I couldn't. -Just in my head. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:03 | |
-"I said, 'Cwm Rhyd Y Rhosyn.' -He looked surprised. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:10 | |
-"'Well, well, the very Dewi off -the record.' That's what he said. | 0:15:11 | 0:15:15 | |
-"'The two records,' you mean. -'You're right,' he said. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:19 | |
-"'Do you want to see them?', I said. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
-"I showed him my list. 'These are -my favourite songs,' I said. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:26 | |
-"Mi Welais Long Yn Hwylio. -Tyrd Am Dro I'r Coed. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:29 | |
-"Tyrd Am Dro Ar Hyd Y Llwybr Troed. -Ty A Gardd. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:33 | |
-"'That's Siriol's favourite.' -'Who's Siriol?' | 0:15:34 | 0:15:37 | |
-"'My best friend.' -'You have a good memory,' he said. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:40 | |
-"'I know,' I said. 'You're lucky, -my memory is failing.' | 0:15:40 | 0:15:44 | |
-"'Why, are you ill?' I said. 'Old -age comes not on its own.' he said. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:49 | |
-"'I have 10 of your records,' I -said, and I started listing them. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:53 | |
-"He looked at his watch. -'Sorry, Dewi, I have to go.' | 0:15:54 | 0:15:59 | |
-"'To where?' I said. 'To a boring -committee meeting. See you.' | 0:15:59 | 0:16:04 | |
-"And off he went across the Maes." | 0:16:04 | 0:16:06 | |
-I'm meeting members -of the Ogwen Valley book club... | 0:16:18 | 0:16:22 | |
-..to hear their thoughts -on the novel. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:25 | |
-The club was set up -five years ago... | 0:16:28 | 0:16:31 | |
-..in conjunction with -Gwynedd's library service... | 0:16:31 | 0:16:35 | |
-..to bring people -with similar interests.... | 0:16:35 | 0:16:39 | |
-..in particular -an interest in books, together. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:43 | |
-We like having discussions... | 0:16:44 | 0:16:46 | |
-..and the occasional argument. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
-Did you enjoy the novel? | 0:16:51 | 0:16:53 | |
-I enjoyed it more the second time -I read it, to be honest. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:57 | |
-There's so much to digest... | 0:16:58 | 0:17:00 | |
-..it's a lot to take in -on the first read. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
-It raises a lot of questions and you -have to draw your own conclusions. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:09 | |
-It suits a deep thinker... | 0:17:10 | 0:17:12 | |
-..more than someone who wants -all the answers explained. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:17 | |
-Would you agree? | 0:17:17 | 0:17:18 | |
-Yes, I would. Don't get me wrong, -I enjoyed the book. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
-But I like things -explained in black and white. | 0:17:23 | 0:17:27 | |
-I don't like enigmatic novels. -It was left wide open. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:31 | |
-There were no solutions in the book. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:34 | |
-I wasn't 100% satisfied. -I didn't like the ending either. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:40 | |
-I would have liked to know -what happened. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:43 | |
-It needed more narrative -instead of soliloquies. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:48 | |
-Having said that, the -characterisations were outstanding. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:53 | |
-When I first read it, -I was searching for clues. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:57 | |
-If you read it again, -you find those clues. | 0:17:58 | 0:18:01 | |
-It's not an easy book to read, -but it's worth reading. | 0:18:01 | 0:18:04 | |
-You find out more... | 0:18:05 | 0:18:08 | |
-..from the long monologues. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:12 | |
-Does one scene stand out for you? | 0:18:12 | 0:18:16 | |
-Not so much a scene... | 0:18:17 | 0:18:19 | |
-..but the part -where she says she has to pretend. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:22 | |
-She says, "Pretending is important. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:26 | |
-"Pretending -not to see and hear things. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:29 | |
-"Pretending not to understand -or know nothing... | 0:18:29 | 0:18:33 | |
-"..but hearing -and seeing everything. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:36 | |
-"Knowing and understanding -everything but saying nothing." | 0:18:36 | 0:18:41 | |
-That was really poignant. | 0:18:41 | 0:18:43 | |
-Pretending is key in this novel. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:46 | |
-There's an extensive use -of dialect in the novel too. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:49 | |
-I thought the language -suited the characters. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:53 | |
-It was spot-on. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:56 | |
-There were a few places -where it didn't quite work. | 0:18:56 | 0:19:00 | |
-Manon's mature use -of the language... | 0:19:01 | 0:19:07 | |
-..came through perhaps -a little more than you'd expect... | 0:19:08 | 0:19:13 | |
-..but Siriol's voice -is very endearing. | 0:19:14 | 0:19:17 | |
-She has a close relationship -with the reader. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:21 | |
-That certainly comes through... | 0:19:22 | 0:19:25 | |
-..in others' voices too. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:27 | |
-What's happened to Dewi in the end? | 0:19:28 | 0:19:30 | |
-He's gone this time, -as the final sentence suggests. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:34 | |
-They're talking about the ford... | 0:19:34 | 0:19:38 | |
-..so this time, -I think he must've drowned. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:41 | |
-I disagree. | 0:19:41 | 0:19:43 | |
-He'll come back -and apologize to Siriol... | 0:19:43 | 0:19:47 | |
-..just as he's done -throughout the book. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:50 | |
-And you're non-committal! | 0:19:50 | 0:19:52 | |
-And you're non-committal! - -Yes, indeed. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:54 | |
-I take it since Robin has been -talking to Manon, he can perhaps... | 0:19:54 | 0:19:58 | |
-No, there was no definite answer, -sorry! | 0:19:59 | 0:20:03 | |
-I don't know -if he comes back or not. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
-I'm leaving the door open -for Manon... | 0:20:07 | 0:20:10 | |
-..to write another novel -about their futures. | 0:20:10 | 0:20:13 | |
-And then we can all go home happy. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:15 | |
-And then we can all go home happy. - -Yes, much happier. | 0:20:15 | 0:20:17 | |
