Description

Yn 1966, llithrodd tomen lo ar ysgol Pantglas, Aber-fan, gan ladd 144 o bobl, y rhan fwyaf ohonynt yn blant. Mae’r bardd Owen Sheers yn rhoi llais i drigolion presennol y pentref glofaol lle digwyddodd y drychineb, ac yn defnyddio eu hatgofion torfol i greu darn trawiadol o lenyddiaeth mydryddol, grymus.
