The threat of eruption is never far below the deceptively smooth surface of Geraldine Mitchell's work. Her debut, World Without Maps, builds on the poems which won the Patrick Kavanagh Award in 2008.

In Geraldine Mitchell’s new collection, poems call and respond across the pages, giving the reader a sense of exploration and discovery, of entering a world where reality is faced but consolation is offered. For all its darker moments, Of Birds and Bones has a lightless of touch. Tenderness and humour counterbalance an unblinking contemplation of human frailty in an uncertain world.
