Description
The elegantly-written poems in What We Will Miss offer reminiscences and re?ections, sometimes wistful and tender, sometimes satirical, often laced with irony and witty humour, on persons and relationships both in the present time and lastingly remembered. The book's “nal section has poems, based on the author's extensive travels in the U.S., Mexico, and across Europe, several African countries and India, which engagingly survey the landscapes, cultures and people of those places.
