Pos Moua

A member of Hmong American Writers’ Circle (HAWC), Pos Moua devotes most of his writings to the themes of love and desire, the Hmong diaspora, and life on "Turtle Island." His first chapbook is "Where The Torches are Burning" (Swan Scythe Press, 2001). In the "Foreword," Gary Snyder writes that the poet gives “an account of love and family and identity in the poet’s new land.” Pos Moua's poems have appeared in the anthologies "Tilting the Continent: Southeast Asian American Writing" (New Rivers Press, 2000) and "How Do I Begin?: A Hmong American Literary Anthology" (Heyday Books, 2011). His newest collection of poems is "Karst Mountains Will Bloom" (Blue Oak Press, 2019).
