"A Map to the Door of No Return is a timely book that explores the relevance and nature
of identity and belonging in a culturally diverse and rapidly changing world. It is
an insightful, sensitive and poetic book of discovery. Drawing on cartography, travels,
narratives of childhood in the Caribbean, journeys across the Canadian landscape,
African ancestry, histories, politics, philosophies and literature, Dionne Brand sketches
the shifting borders of home and nation, the connection to place in Canada and the
world beyond. The title, A Map to the Door of No Return, refers to both a place in
imagination and a point in history -- the Middle Passage. The quest for identity and
place has profound meaning and resonance in an age of heterogenous identities. In
this exquisitely written and thought-provoking new work, Dionne Brand creates a map
of her own art."--amazon.ca desc. 2002 ed
