The Insufficiency of Maps by Nora Pierce

Synopsis coming soon.......
"Nora Pierce's debut novel, The Insufficiency of Maps, explores the textures and mysteries of the fundamental human experiences -- love, dependence, marginality, madness--in a poetic style which does not seek to simply explicate those textures and mysteries, but embodies them"

-- Janet Fitch, author of White Oleander
"Nora Pierce will write many great books that will sell increasing numbers of copies. Trust me on this. She's gonna be a Wonder Woman."

-- Sherman Alexie, author of The Toughest Indian in the World
"The Insufficiency of Maps is an engaging, profound, and illuminating story. Enormous accomplishments."

-- John L'Heureux, former editor of The Atlantic Monthly, author of sixteen books of poetry and fiction
Nora Pierce teaches creative writing at Stanford University, where she was also a Wallace Stegner fellow. An award-winning writer, she was a Rosenthal Fellow in the PEN Center Emerging Voices program. She lives in California.
