This is a gorgeous meditation on directions, landmarks, and spatial situation.

My father told me how when he came to the US he was slightly disoriented because whenever he got lost (in NYC) he'd look to orient himself by the Blue Mountains (the spine of Jamaica) and not see them.

Samuel Delany's autobiography The Motion of Light in Water talks about how his dyslexia gave him a lot of trouble in the NYC subway system.
