Grouped in 19 poetic "zones" ranging from "Neo-Orientalist Deconstructions" to "Homoerotic Poetry," this anthology includes work from 73 poets, juxtaposing them in ways that both echo and subvert categories of theme, poetics and identity, and with a particular focus on poetry that interacts with other media. Contributors include veteran authors like Jessica Hagedorn, Lawson Fusao Inada and Kimiko Hahn, as well as new poets like R. Zamora Linmark, Barry Masuda, Evelyn Lau and Amitava Kumar, and an emerging generation of Vietnamese-American and Korean-American poets. Premonitions is the most comprehensive anthology of Asian North American poetry to date.
