The landscapes Michael Walls traverses in Climbing an Unnamed Mountain, range from the natural-kayaking the Rio Grande and crossing trails in Georgia-to the personal, political, and historical. Elegies for friends, family, and dying species appear alongside a moving sequence exploring the legacies of nuclear testing in the Republic of the Marshall Islands. Ultimately, this wide-ranging collection asks us to consider our connections to others and the planet we share. What does it mean to be a child, a parent, a citizen? Richly observed and carefully rendered, these poems challenge us to respond to the world's injustices while never forgetting its luminous beauty.
