Writing of Where
Graffiti and the Production of Writing Spaces
Charles N. Lesh ; Charles N. Lesh
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

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 notebooks writers call "e;bibles"e; to freight yards and model trains; from abandoned factories
to benches where writers view trains. Between each chapter, readers will find "e;community interludes,"e; 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.
