Book description
"One of life's great treats, for a lover of books (especially fantasy books), is to open a cover to find a map secreted inside and filled with the details of a land about to be discovered. . . . The Writer's Map contains dozens of the magical maps writers have drawn or that have been made by others to illustrate the places they've created."- Atlas Obscura"This handsome tome is a pure expression of that love [of maps] and of the interplay between magical prose and imaginary cartography. Sumptuous maps of notable fantasy worlds jostle for space alongside essays from fantasy writers. The Writer's Map charts the landscapes of literary imagination with passion and care."- NPR"Gorgeously designed. . . This delightful, engrossing exploration is for every reader who's ever admired a book or a map, let alone both."- Shelf Awareness"Fascinating."- Financial Times"Nothing less than a writer's love letter to the map."- Tor.com"[For] the admirer of beautifully designed books often discovered in childhood and never left behind. . . . the quintessential coffee-table book."- Chicago Tribune"Lewis-Jones's beautifully produced compendium takes in everything from Utopia, charted for Thomas More's satire of 1516, to Westeros, a continent in that swords-and-sorcery series Game of Thrones. It shows how writers of the past created worlds that have inspired writers of the present, from Joanne Harris to Robert Macfarlane. It's a reminder that a map is far more than a means of plotting a route. Like a book, it can transport you. It can work magic."- Telegraph"Will delight the most devoted bibliophile."- Globe and Mail"We've hit the jackpot with The Writer's Map. It's a delightful collection of all sorts of literary maps . . . The art is the star here, pages and pages of every sort of map you can imagine, reproduced on oversized pages to delight and confound the viewer with their detail and imaginative depictions of a three-dimensional world reduced to two."- Charles de Lint"Lewis-Jones has assembled a team of writers and illustrators and asked them to explain in personal terms what maps mean to them, how their love of the things came about and how maps figure in their own work."- Wall Street Journal"A beautiful book. . . . Lewis-Jones has crafted an incredible love letter to invention, place, and the art of the map."- Zocalo Public Square"A visual feast. . . . Offers an enchanting look at the world around us, and the worlds we imagine."- Fine Books Magazine"The Writer's Map allows readers to tour worlds created by some of literature's greatest storytellers. The beautiful book features a full-color collection of magical maps imagined by a range of authors, from classic novelist Rudyard Kipling to contemporary children's author Abi Elphinstone. When compiled together, these maps compose 'a curious, creative gathering' any explorer is bound to enjoy."- My Modern Met"In an age when paper maps feel obsolete, this book by Huw Lewis-Jones is a journey through imaginary worlds."- OZY"It deserves saying up front: this is a beautiful book. If you run a map library, you should have it in your collection; if you read fiction and are interested in maps, you will find a lot in it to explore."- Nat Case"This is a wonderfully illustrated book that one could spend hours just looking at the maps contained. The maps are of fictional places as well as a plentitude of maps from before the 1600s, when 'factual maps' were often drawn by cartographers that were listening to the tales of mariners and explorers and the maps were then as reliable as the tales. This is an excellent addition to the literature."- Mythlore jQuery(function() { jQuery( "#tabs" ).tabs(); });
