Maps of the Imagination: The Writer as Cartographer by Peter Turchi

4.0

The writer as a cartographer - the subtitle of the book - is a good description of what it's about. It's beautifully written and shows how the map is a metaphor for the story. At points hard-going (particularly when referencing works that were not familiar to me) but full of gems. Eg, 'Like maps, fiction and poetry enable us to "see" what is literally too large for our vision.'
