Only nine months after its publication, Tongue Tied , a novel by Peter Griffiths, has been reprintedonce again! This is remarkable for an author with no name recognition. The achievement attests to Tongue Tieds power to please at several levels; it speaks to the novels literary attributes, its strong story line, and, as Mary Seamans review in the Celtic Connection puts it, its masterful conclusion. another reviewer, Lise Hull in Ninnau, underlines Tongue Tieds appeal with, This tale of what it means to be Welsh should be on everyones reading list, whether they have been to Wales or not, whether they are Welsh or not. In support of this notion of universality, consider the reaction to Tongue Tied of two ladies whose lives are worlds apart. Marti Stewart is the book club coordinator for the Tattered Cover, Denvers leading bookstore. she said, While I read Tongue Tied, I felt as if I was on a two week vacation in Wales. the other lady actually lives in Wales and speaks Welsh with the best of them. She said, Tongue Tied is an authentic novel...a great read." this is praise indeed from Enid Gruffudd, the distinguished wife of y Lolfa's proprietor!
