Omschrijving
First collection in English by the central literary figure of China's post-Misty Poetry movement beginning in the 1980s.
Bai Hua: Considered the central literary figure of the post-Obscure (post- Misty”) poetry movement during the 1980s, Bai Hua was born in Chongqing in 1956. After graduating from Guangzhou Foreign Language Institute in 1982, he taught at various universities before working as an independent writer.His first collection of poems, Expression (1988), found immediate critical acclaim. A highly demanding writer, Bai Hua has a small but selective poetic output: in the past thirty years he’s written approximately ninety poems, most of which command a large audience in his nation today. After a silence of more than a decade, he began writing poetry again in 2007. That same year, his work garnered the prestigious Rougang Poetry Award. A prolific writer of critical prose and hybrid texts, Bai Hua is also a recipient of the Anne Kao Poetry Prize. Fiona Sze-Lorrain: Fiona Sze-Lorrain writes and translates in French, English, and Chinese. Her recent work includes Water the Moon (Marick Press, 2010). Co-director of Vif e'ditions and one of the editors at Cerise Press, she is also a zheng concertist.
