A Feeling for Rock

By: Dobner, Sarah-Jane

How does it feel to climb - the touch, ethics, companionship, landscape and language? A Feeling for Rock explores a range of topics in this clever mix of poetry, cartoons, photographs, essays and interviews. Fun for dipping into or a more immersive read, it will brighten your climbing experience. A Feeling for Rock won the Climbing Literature Award at Banff Mountain Book Competition 2021. The poem 'Hands' won the Shextreme Adventure Poetry Competition 2021.

"Rock climbing has shaped my body, my bookshelves, my boyfriends, my community, my employment, my home, my holidays, the clothes I wear, the vehicle I drive, how I spend my money and what happens when I die. I am a product of the rock. The dynamic is visceral, spiritual, intellectual and emotional - no area of me untouched by this curious hobby."
