Do you have a favourite map showing literary associations?

“a map ‘has to use shorthand, or symbols, or metaphor, and in this it resembles poetry’” [1]

‘If I’m not really going anywhere, then travel by map of course provides the only possible route – everywhere, to nowhere in particular…buried treasure, lost continents and phantom islands…Maps are guilty of distortion, it’s true, but I forgive them for it… Every map tells a story.’’[2]
