Description
No Map Could Show Them by Helen Mort is a powerful and evocative collection of poems that explore the intersection of nature, identity, and human experience.
Inspired by her passions for mountaineering and running, Mort's poems are a tribute to the women who have shaped these pursuits, from the trailblazing Miss Jemima Morrell to the tragic figure of Alison Hargreaves. The result is a sequence of distinctive and unforgettable poems that capture the beauty and danger of the natural world.
This second collection confirms Helen Mort's position as one of the finest young poets at work today, with a voice that is both deeply personal and universally relatable.
