“With heartbreaking clarity, and using grammar as her springboard, Waugh leaps between/into buildings, stops for the death of a bee then soars over a fence and off the page before returning to a Lithgow childhood. Amidst the destruction, dignity and despair of our culpable world this book is a bell.” — Les Wicks

IP (Interactive Publications Pty Ltd) –
This collection of poems ordered under grammatical categories such as “future tense,” “bare infinitives,” “possessive phrases” and “simple past,” offers poems that use grammar in the old way, the right way, a way that provides words and sounds as spring boards to ideas. Waugh’s courageous poems are social, personal, philosophical, and chock full of splendid metaphors. Her aesthetically pleasing juxtapositions of images, sounds and ideas satisfy the human soul.
