回 / Return by Emily Lee Luan
the87press
Rooted in the classical tradition of the Chinese "reversible" poem, 回 / Return is engaged in the act of looking back”toward an imagined homeland and a childhood of suburban longing, through migratory passages, departures, and etymologies, and into the various holes and voids that appear in the telling and retelling of history. The poems ask: What is feeling? What is melancholy? Can language translate either?
