Paperback. Condition: New. The writers in Washing Windows Too have things on their minds that have exploded into that love-urgency that makes writers write. And, just as it should be, few subjects are off limits. A poet may not always love her inspirational material, but those here revere the act of writing so much - value it so much - that honing their ideas, visions, and insights into poem-shaped, concrete objects has become crucial. It is an honour to witness what has urged these writers to the process of thought, cogitation, sentence, and finally, poem.Many writers use writing as an attempt to solve life's conundrums - to solve themselves.

And, because we are living in the early twenty-twenties, the pandemic naturally features in some poems.…
