Cartographies; meditations on travelby Agosín, Marjorie. Trans. by Nancy Abraham Hall
DescriptionU. of Georgia Press, 2004. Hardbound. New Book. Hardbound. In a series of short pieces, AgosÍn--a human rights activist, writer, and teacher (Spanish, Wellesley College)--records moments from personal, spiritual, and physical voyages across four continents, contemplating exile and refuge. "I navigated without maps or precise schedules," she begins. "I eschewed directions and travel times. I understood that no one awaits a true traveler. Day and night were contained within me. I looked at my hands and understood heredity. I understood how the rhythm of a heart devoid of armor creates a map, imprecise yet full of remembrance and discoveries, like entering a secret." The lovely little (5.5x7.5") volume meanders without an index. (©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR) Similar books from this booksellerFrom this bookseller's Geography catalog.
