  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

  Theatre Royal. The very name summons up something of grandeur and eloquence. And it was. Hosted by Laurence Olivier, these big-name productions also included the creme de la creme of acting talents from John Gielgud, Ralph Richardson, and Orson Welles to Trevor Howard, Michael Redgrave and Olivier himself. They were based on works by the worlds’ leading authors, among them Charles Dickens, Henry James, Oscar Wilde and Anton Chekhov.  These are but a few of whose company we shall be keeping as we raise the curtain on our first instalment of theatrical history.
