Washing Lines selected by Janie Hextall and Barbara McNaught
When they published Washing Lines in 2011, Janie and Barbara found to their delight that they were not the only people in the world who love washing lines and poetry. The book sold out quickly, hence this new REVISED EDITION, which replaces some poems with new or previously undiscovered work (highlighted in the contents list). All the poems in this anthology are about laundry and washing reflecting many human emotions to do with family, relationships and memory. So whether it is the joy of washing blowing on the line, the smell of clean linen or the rhythmic dance of two people folding sheets together, this revised collection is a continued celebration. Poets include Gillian Clarke, Seamus Heaney, Helen Dunmore, Michael Longley, Pablo Neruda, Simon Armitage, Hugo Williams, Richard Wilbur . . . Wood engravers include Clifford Harper, Anne Hayward, Clare Leighton, Beth Krommes, Sue Scullard . . .
