A collection of representations of the globe over the last 2,000 years, the book ‘Terrestrial Tales’ serves to not only open up a discourse on how we see the world but also show how our world is constructed as a compendium of divergent or competing narratives that shape and confirm our view of it – and with that, our own self-image. moreEach of the illustrations is supplemented with a short description.

An essay by authors Marc Angélil and Cary Siress complements and contextualises the collection. read Review
