      Book Overview

      In this collection, acclaimed Jamaican poet Kei Miller dramatizes what happens when one system of knowledge, one method of understanding place and territory, comes up against another. We watch as the cartographer, used to the scientific methods of assuming control over a place by mapping it, is gradually compelled to recognize--even to envy--a wholly different understanding of place, as he tries to map his way to the rastaman's eternal city of Zion. As the book unfolds the cartographer learns that, on this island of roads that "constrict like throats," every place-name comes freighted with history, and not every place that can be named can be found.

      Inspiring!

      By Lisa Ivers,

      Inspiring. My entire family loved ‘Make Your Bed’ and this book is equally compelling. The chapters relay interesting, heartfelt stories that make you glad to be alive and share the world with the brave men and women of our military. Our (MDS) Modern Day Superhero’s. I highly recommend this book. Lisa Ivers, Canandaigua NY
