More about the book

Exploring the theme of identity and voice, this collection of poems delves into the complexities of language and perception, particularly from an Asian American perspective. Divided into eight sections, it examines concepts of address through various lenses, including memory and events. The work creatively intertwines influences from notable figures like Baudelaire and Philip K. Dick, enriching the narrative and challenging the reader to consider who is speaking and who is being represented. The poems embody Dickinson's idea of revealing truth with nuance and depth.
