Reginald Farrer is best known for his botanical explorations and writings on alpine plants, but "The Sundered Streams" stands out as a departure from his usual botanical works. The book is characterized by lyrical prose and vivid descriptions, taking readers on a journey through Farrer's memories and experiences. The title suggests a narrative that flows continuously, without definitive breaks or pauses ("full stops"), reflecting the fluidity of memory and personal reflection. It's considered a meditative work, exploring themes of nature, beauty, and the passage of time through Farrer's unique perspective.
