Bookseller Editor's Choice 'This book is beautiful' Emma Jane
Unsworth Climbing gives you the illusion of being in control, just
for a while, the tantalising sense of being able to stay one move
ahead of death. Helen Mort has always been drawn to the thrill and
risk of climbing: the tension between human and rockface, and the
climber's powerful connection to the elemental world. But when she
becomes a mother for the first time, she finds herself re-examining
her relationship with both the natural world and herself, as well
as the way the world views women who aren't afraid to take risks. A
Line Above the Sky melds memoir and nature writing to ask why
humans are drawn to danger, and how we can find freedom in pushing
our limits. It is a visceral love letter to losing oneself in
physicality, whether climbing a mountain or bringing a child into
the world, and an unforgettable celebration of womanhood in all its
forms.
