"The Writing of Where examines how graffiti writers in Boston write and rewrite various spaces within and across the city. Drawing on a four-year study with graffiti writers, this book explores how writing communities-particularly those marginalized by local processes of neoliberal space-produce public texts that at once challenge existing discourses of place and produce new, emergent writing spaces organized around alternative social principles"--

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - In The Writing of Where, Charles Lesh examines how graffiti writers in Boston remake various spaces within and across the city. The spaces readers will encounter in this book are not just meaningful venues of writing, but also outcomes of writing itself: social spaces not just where writing happens but created because writing happens. Lesh contends that these graffiti spaces reinvent the writing landscape of the city and its public relationship with writing. Each chapter introduces readers to different writing spaces: from bold and broadly visible spots along the highway to bridge underpasses seldom seen by non-writers; from inconspicuous not Elektronisches Buch writers call bibles to freight yards and model trains; from abandoned factories to benches where writers view trains. Between each chapter, readers will find community interludes, responses to the preceding chapters from some of the graffiti writers who worked on this project. By working closely with writers engaged in the production of these spaces, as well as drawing on work invested in questions of geography, publics, and writing, Lesh identifies new models of community engagement and articulates a framework for the spatiality of the public work of writing and writing studies.
