Description:
Cartography: A Mapping of Home is a nuanced and poetic view of what constitutes a home and how what fills those vessels--hearts, minds, bodies, and memories-are ever in flux, moving between the solid present and the ghosts of the past. Yvette Green allows readers to travel with her as she draws, explores, and then expands the boundaries of what home can contain. It's through her exploration of family, place, and history that we learn how it feels to find a sense of belonging while still being brave enough to leave and build a place of one's own.
