Thanks to the publisher and Libro.fm for an ALC of this title!This was a charming look into cartography and had an interesting voice. Mostly that really helped as you felt you were discovering along with the author, but occasionally, it defied my suspension of disbelief. There is of course, Nazis and the patriarchy buried not far down. It felt like the author was a little surprised to find them. You won‘t be. #bookspinbingo

“… dealing with the present is a huge problem.” Now this is referring to the loss of map libraries in Britain, but it can also forcefully describe, well, everything. Sigh.
