It wasn't our fault, but they blamed us.

​

In September 1993, a flood hit an Alpine valley.

In 2024, more than thirty years later, Bröwa transforms his first-hand account of the events into a novel. Until now, the story had always seemed too complex to be told from a single point of view.

As a writer of the mountains, he entrusts the story to two exceptional witnesses: the direct, yet unwitting, architects of that catastrophe.

Mountain and River recall events and offer commentary, revealing their relationship with the surrounding world, including humans — sometimes irritating, sometimes splendid — with whom they now share an unbreakable bond.
