A modern poetry anthology that includes the work of a second generation of Asian American poets who are taking the best of the prior generation, but also breaking conventional patterns.
Victoria M. Chang is a published poet (Cream City Review, Crab Orchard Review, Florida Review, MacGuffin, Lullwater Review, Hawaitt Review) and the founder and editor of the Asian/Pacific American Women's Journal at the University of Michigan. Marilyn Chin is the author of Rhapsody in Plain Yellow, and Dwarf Bamboo.
"The poems in this vibrant, varied collection address so many subjects in such a range of voices that it all but destroys monolithic notions of Asian American identity, culture, and issues." -- Guiyou Huang, author of The Columbia Guide to Asian American Literature "A new generation of Asian American poets has indeed risen and needs to be acknowledged and celebrated--something this book does brilliantly. Victoria Chang has done a great deal of digging, allowing the reader of this collection to experience again and again the excitement of discovering a vibrant new poetic voice." --Jim Daniels, author of City Pool and coeditor of American Poetry: The Next Generation
