  The Author<
br />
  Born and brought up in Germany, Imogen Herrad has also lived in London and in Argentina, and currently divides her time between Cardiff and Cologne. She writes in German and English. Her short stories and articles (in English) have been published in magazines and anthologies in Wales, Canada and the US. She is the author of The Woman Who Loved an Octopus and other stories, a collection of stories about female Celtic saints. Her programmes for German public radio (in German) include pieces about the Queen of Sheba, Morgan le Fay, Zora Neale Hurston, the Mapuche people of Patagonia, and the cultural histories of sheep, dragons, the apple and hermaphrodites, respectively.

  Acknowledgements

  Writing is not nearly as much a solitary pursuit as one might think. I could never have written this book without the assistance of more people than I can name here. First and most importantly, my heartfelt thanks to all who told me their stories, particularly those who shared difficult and sometimes painful tales.

  Mis agradecimientos cariñosísimos a todos y todas que me contaron sus historias. Para su generosa hospidalidad les agradezco de mi corazón a la Familia Fermín, Rini Griffith, María Luisa y Gonzalo Huincaleo, Marli Pugh de Villoria y Rodolfo Villoria. Les agradezco por contestar a mis tantas preguntas a Ambrosio Ainqueó, Fabio Gonzalez, Rini Griffith, Vali James de Irianni, Mauro Millán y Oscar Payaguala.

  I’m very grateful to Academi Gymreig/Literature Wales for selecting me for their mentoring scheme, and to Simon Rees who provided the mentoring. Without his brio, encouragement and ruthless feedback my Patagonian experiences would probably still be part untidy manuscript, part even more untidy memories in my head. Richard Davies did much to knock the result into shape, for which I owe him many thanks. I’m grateful to my publisher Mick Felton for his enthusiasm for my work and for gently ironing out the remaining bumps.

  And, as ever, my thanks go to my friends for keeping the faith and for believing in me, particularly at those times when I did not. I am extremely fortunate to have all of them in my life: Donna Collier, Sandra Ebert, Judith Fessler, Alexa Lazar, Anne Massagee, Vanina Mobilia, Liz Morgan, Lindsay River, Meena Siyani, Ellis Suzanna Slack, Lola Sparkle, Penny Taylor, Lesley Trenkel and Frank Zitka.

  Lastly, I cannot remember her name, but I’d like to thank whoever it was said Bydd ’na rhywun yn siarad am Batagonia yn y coleg heno all those years ago in a kitchen in Aberystwyth, for telling me about Patagonia and its Welsh inhabitants and putting the first seed of the mad idea of going there into my head.
