Arresting and beautiful, The Consolation of Maps tells a story of ill-fated passion. Theodora Appel runs a company that is more like a family. When young Kenji Tanabe moves from Tokyo to Washington, he?s initiated into her rarefied world of antiquarian cartography. But Theodora ? brilliantly successful, beguilingly secretive ? has another obsession. It is in Florence, where past clashes with present and even love has a price, that her impossible dream will threaten them all.

Rezensionen
Austere and elusive . . . lithe, controlled narrative . . . Bourke has created a novel that, like the complex objects - at once historical yet aesthetic - from which it takes its name, repays effort and attention Neil Hegarty Irish Times
