If, as this book's first poem maintains, \"we know each other from what we leave behind,\" Wortsman writes, \"I will hope these cut-up words and images bestir a smile or two on the face of the reader and perhaps a knowing nod.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Wortsman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1962316211\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781962316217\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bamboo Dart Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/12\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 70\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.50h x 6.50w x 0.19d","brand":"Peter Wortsman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48089423970559,"sku":"9781962316217","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2f53e495-ec56-4e9c-95ac-5dcba3502bc6.jpg?v=1769110163","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/what-we-leave-behind-peter-wortsman-9781962316217","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
