Shortlisted for the 2003 Henry Kreisel Award for Best First Book (Writers Guild of Alberta Award) In Cartography and Walking, Adam Dickinson charts his own listening -- an acute listening of eye and ear, a listening with both body and mind. "Cartography" is more than a metaphor for him, it's a way of being. It is how we dwell in the world, and how intimacy enriches such dwelling.
