“Please don’t tell me to carry a map,” Federico García Lorca wrote his parents from New York, while studying English at Columbia University and writing Poet in New York. “The map never helps me at all, it’s useless. When it comes to maps, I have no sense of direction. When I trust my own instinct I reach my destination, but a map only leads me astray.” Interactive map of Lorca in NYC. {via poetrysociety}
