​Purgatory Has an Address

Nominated for a Pushcart Prize
Book Review

“Purgatory” is very much a book of poetry of place--one’s place in the world, in the community, and in the family. In this, it addresses adoption, racial issues, and even the Santa Ana winds that Inland Southern California is so well known for. It takes quite a talent to pull these diverse subjects together thematically, yet Washington is more than up to the task.
   - Victoria Waddle, author of Acts of Contrition
