Songs for You and Me – Grade 2

This collection of letters in free verse – letters to friends, to lovers, to family, to himself, and to strangers – is written with a rare indifference to the reader. In these words there lies no superfluous prose. Instead, the veil is drawn and the raw emotion of the author hits the reader like an unexpected waft of truth.
