Poetry

Paperback. The book as a whole attempts to address our predicament in a way that is silly, open-hearted and unashamed. These poems have been met, fought with and then abandoned. They were not written in a classroom. They asked to be written, mostly at inopportune times - on trains, in fields, in bars and in the backs of taxis. Num Pages: 100 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: DCF. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 136 x 204 x 10. Weight in Grams: 96.
