Our book of the week is our Spring Recommendation: Light Year by Jennifer Wong, published by Nine Arches Press.
"Wong draws the reader into a tender confidence, at once revealing and particular, so that reading Light Year is a remarkably intimate and almost conspiratorial experience."
– Victoria Kennefick, PBS Selector
In this collection, Jennifer Wong maps the distances between Hong Kong and the UK, mother and daughter, fractured histories and the present moment. Her sublime imagery coalesces with memory in poems that move through the passage of time, offering glimpses into the journeys of a migrant, a daughter and a mother, and asking what it might mean to move like light itself.
