Yvonne Reddick has won the Mslexia pamphlet prize with her striking poems, Translating Mountains, that grapple with the death of a beloved father and a close friend who both died while mountaineering. The spiky language of mountaineering and the craggy syllables of Scottish place names make for poems full of brilliant texture and bite.
