Menna Elfyn's Dual Language Welsh-english Collection Murmur Is Full Of Murmurings, Such As The Need 'to Walk The Earth As If There's A Baby Sleeping Next Door'. Murmur Is A Poetry Of Meditation, From The Reverberations Of Dead Poets To Murmurs Of The Heart Which Force The Poet To Dwell On The Irregular Beat Of The Poet's Lot.distant Sounds Too Are Heard From Captivity In A Sequence Of Poems About The Last Princess Of Wales, Catrin Glyndwr, Daughter Of Owain Glyndwr, Who Was Incarcerated With Her Children In The Tower Of London For Over Two Years Until Their Mysterious Death. Fittingly Enough, Mur-mur In Welsh Also Means Wall-wall, So The Book's Leitmotif Is One That Stresses The Distance Between Words And Worlds - And The Way Poetry Is A Language Beyond Language Which We Can Sometimes Only Grasp Through Sound.menna Elfyn Is The Best-known, Most Travelled And Most Translated Of All Welsh-language Poets.
