About the Book

Completed in a single year of urgent, relentless creation, Cartography of Voice charts the journey from individual grief to collective testimony-a blueprint for finding the voice that was always waiting. When designer and writer Rick Maderis's mother died in 2025, the brush went quiet. He returned to what remained: old poetry journals, college fragments, pieces written in periods of silence between composition books and yellow legal pads. From this excavation-fusing past material with immediate grief-he built a five-phase curriculum for securing voice after loss. Phase I: Excavation - Until Silence Spoke Finding authentic voice, creating maps from scar tissue, treating silence as preparation rather than emptiness. Phase II: Architecture - After the Last Echo Constructing conscious relationships, exploring the mathematics of repair over performance. Phase III: Intervention - Waiting for Room Expanding beyond the self to use poetry as collective service, embracing the radical discipline of hope. Phase IV: Witness - American Witness A confrontation with Lady Liberty using Echo-mapping methodology-transforming readers into co-witnesses of America's collective trauma. Phase V: Convergence - Between Breath & Release 24 poems across 12 dual forms where witness becomes inheritance and love becomes matter. Ezra dies at 24 saving a stranger, learns he was adopted, then witnesses his birth parents rebuilding love after dying together in purgatory. This is not a book for passive reading. It is sound made visible, structure made necessary. Maderis weaves verse, memoir, manifesto, and formal analysis into a work that operates as both autobiography and map. A sixth phase, Memory, will follow after the necessary distance of time. Cartography of Voice asks: Where do I find my voice? and, more importantly, What do I build with it? Essential reading for anyone who knows survival isn't about breaking clean-it's about holding the line in between.
