Poet Mark S. Osaki covers a number of poignant topics in Best Evidence. Each poem in the four sections gives you a glimpse of a formative moment in Osaki's life or expands your viewpoint on conflicts in the world. Some poems, like the powerful "Chinese Camp, California," speak of a larger cultural experience and the nuances of navigating identity as an Asian American. Others still, like "Gun Song," show the psychological and cultural impact of war. In each new work, Osaki captures powerful moments of longing and loss.
