A math teacher living 1, 000 miles from the literary center of Beijing offers daring, restless nature sonnets, free verse, and genre-bending prose poems. Ya Shi, an outsider" poet, who teaches math and lives 1, 000 miles from the Beijing literary scene, is celebrated among lovers of Chinese poetry from the conservative to the avant-garde. This bilingual (Chinese/English) collection draws together jagged and intense short lyrics, wild nature sonnets, and genre-bending prose poetry from across his career. His work is rooted in the independent spirit, folk imagination and tough music of the people of Sichuan, and combines iconoclasm and heart to demonstrate what's possible in Chinese poetry today." | Floral Mutter by Ya Shi, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
