The Unmapped Woman by Abegail Morley
This deeply moving new collection from Abegail Morley explores the altitudes of trauma, mapping the stark new territory that loss leaves behind, where the landmarks of absence overfill with memories, where the missing loom large, casting their unshifting shadow. “In The Unmapped Woman Morley writes with astonishing technical virtuosity as she searches for recovery through art...Morley speaks in a voice that is eloquent and precise as she seeks to understand what happens to the vanished." - Nancy Gaffield “Abegail Morley is a natural poet. Each poem seems exhaled in a single necessary breath as she unflinchingly addresses traumatic events. Her language is fresh, fluent and unadorned, with strikingly accurate images, and endings that make the reader re-consider the whole poem... This is a highly talented, original voice well worth listening to.” – Patricia McCarthy “These are poems to live with - tight as the skin of a drum.” – Robert Peake
Abegail Morley’s collection The Skin Diary was published by Nine Arches Press and reviewed in the Times Literary Supplement. Her most recent pamphlet is In the Curator’s Hands, published by Indigo Dreams Publishing. She is one of the co-editors of Against the Grain Press, an innovative small independent poetry publisher dedicated to publishing challenging, well-crafted poetry. Abegail was named one of the Five British Poets to watch by The Huffington Post in 2017.
