Not Down in Any Map is a thoughtful, nuanced, soulful debut." -Matthew Sharpe, author of The Sleeping Father, an NBC Today Show Book Club selection, and Jamestown, and former Adjunct Assistant Professor of Writing, Columbia University MFA ProgramIn this collection of twelve insightful and evocative stories, vivid characters bruised by their relationships, their decisions, or by life itself are compelled to move in new directions.These are everyday people tempted, or forced, to search for truth, guided by the signposts of their urban world. But along the way, each discovers a primordial truth: that the world is indifferent, and its signposts are ambiguous, often concealing truth rather than illuminating it.Written with fearless introspection, lyrical prose, and rich symbolism, Not Down in Any Map explores the choices we make between fear and courage, hostility and compassion, disillusionment and hope-momentous choices bearing the power to either curse or save.
