Thanks Stephen, it was a first attempt so you’ve encouraged me to persevere - have you read ”Into the Silence” by Wade Davis? If not, I can recommend it!

It is indeed a fascinating story, RA, and this villanelle does justice to it.

I will certainly look out for this, RA. Thank you. Some years ago I read 'Into Thin Air' by John Krakauer, which is an absorbing account of an ill-fated Everest expedition in the 1990s.
