In INK FOR AN ODD CARTOGRAPHY, Battiste takes on the poetics of geography, examining the influence landscape and place have on people and their decisions. She investigates the charged distance between individuals, the space between where all the action-and interaction-takes place. The final section of the book, Mapping the Spaces Between, is a linked series of epistolary poems in which a slightly neurotic speaker addresses her lover. Though the poems begin tenderly, things quickly go awry.
