Dried Tangerine Skin
by May Chan
edited by Beth Follett
Description
Dried Tangerine Skin continues the examination of questions preoccupying the poet, questions having to do with borders and cross-cultural existence, of ancient and modern tools and traditions. The book contains 54 poems that issue as soft light and morning dew. In their very makeup, these poems demonstrate an Eastern approach to life and living so fundamentally different from ours in the West. Chan and her husband travel regularly to Hong Kong: The poet observes the boundary shifts, silences and losses within herself during these east-west movements.
