Content Catnip<p>In Invisible Lines, geographer Maxim Samson draws readers into the unseen architecture of our world— curious and yet invisible borders, boundaries, and barriers that we humans take for granted.

This is an absolutely fascinating deep dive into how lines—both literal and metaphorical—divide, define and disorient us. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MaximSamson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MaximSamson</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Geography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Geography</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Politics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/History" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>History</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/InvisibleLines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InvisibleLines</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Book" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Book</span></a>…</p><p><a href="http://contentcatnip.com/2025/05/25/book-review-invisible-lines-by-maxim-samson/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://</span><span class="ellipsis">contentcatnip.com/2025/05/25/b</span><span class="invisible">ook-review-invisible-lines-by-maxim-samson/</span></a></p>
