Poetic Routes is Albuquerque's poetic cartography, an inclusive non-narrative study of human geography through which emerging and established writers layer their voices with the city's historical and cultural vibrancy. Poetry of a place values locales, knowing “who you are by knowing where you are” as the poet Wendell Berry once wrote. This map is intended to have the ability to create timeless moments, express individual experiences in a universal way, and to craft a sense of communal identity.
