Description
MacDonald writes that “home is a place in the heart. It is part actual and part invented, part remembered and part reconstructed, part learned and part inherited.” In The Geography of Home, MacDonald traces the rural Prince Edward Island that he grew up in from the late 1950s through the early 1970s, a landscape on the cusp of far-reaching change.
The depiction of an era offered here is a mixed-media portrait, combining prose and poetry, history and memory. Each poem takes as its touchstone a place, person, practice, or plot and is paired with a short reflection that unpacks facets of the culture being explored. MacDonald writes that while history attempts to trace changes over time, “memories are the little, coloured stones that we collect to assemble a mosaic of our lived past.”
