how wonderful to read Renée M. Sgroi‘s review of my book, amazing to find another fine poet sees what I cannot see. She selected several poems echoing the ones liked by Dana Gioia. Blanks was accepted by Literary Review of Canada and The Rare Abalone was inspired by current US poet laureate Arthur Sze.
Another of my translations of Yan Li’s work has been showcased for National Translation Month
(my other translations of his work have appeared in Queen’s Quarterly Denver Quarterly @Modern Poetry in Translation, Live Encounters Poetry & Writing Cha: An Asian Literary Journal etc My thanks to the wonderful magazines and editors who made this possible!)
Thanks Waves (生活潮）for publishing my poem: 虚构, it is in prints in Taiwan
