Still Clutching Maps

By Christina Butcher

Still Clutching Maps is a poetry collection exploring Chicana heritage, power and identity, and the impact "place" and "geography" have on our outlook on life. The poems' content encompasses the author's experiences of living and travelling through the American southwest, Hawaiian Islands, Pacific Northwest, Yukon Territory and Alaska, and India. Butcher's poems are honest and self-exploratory, often using sound to highlight cultural heritage of not only herself, but the people around her. Her writing is heavy with raw imagery, exposing an evolving relationship to language, power and loss.
