* A Poetry Book Society Recommendation 2016* 'When we climb alone
en cordee feminine, we are magicians of the Alps - we make the
routes we follow disappear' The poems of Helen Mort's second
collection offer an unforgettable perspective on the heights we
scale and the distances we run, the routes we follow and the paths
we make for ourselves. Here are odes to the women who dared to
break new ground - from Miss Jemima Morrell, a young Victorian
woman from Yorkshire who hiked the Swiss Peaks in her skirts and
petticoats, to the modern British mountaineer Alison Hargreaves,
who died descending from the summit of K2. Distinctive and
courageous, these are poems of passion and precipices, of edges and
extremes. No Map Could Show Them confirms Helen Mort's position as
one of the finest young poets at work today.
