Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A new, bilingual collection of poetry by a pioneering, multi-talented Chinese writer and photographer in a landmark English translation.A new, bilingual collection of poetry by a pioneering, multi-talented Chinese writer and photographer in a landmark English translation."My poems are flecks of salt clinging ambivalently to a horse's back," Wang Yin writes. This is the first comprehensive collection of this important Chinese poet's work to appear in English, translated by Andrea Lingenfelter. Readers can follow the full arc of his career, from the early, surrealist, and Deep Image-influenced work of the 1980s, when he made his debut as a post-Misty poet, through the turn toward the rawer, more immediate poetry of the nineties, and on to the existential and ineffable weavings of his more recent work. Wang's sensibility is both cosmopolitan and lyrical, and his poetry has a subtlety and beauty that contrasts with the often physically painful imagery with which he depicts psychological reality, a reality expressed as various states of mind struggling against the suppression of memory. Shanghai winters, a winter in Katowice, a summer day with ghosts, blue shadows, petals in the darkness, an "empty lane lit up by moonlight"-the poems of this extraordinary volume illuminate the inner life as a singular encounter between physical and spiritual realms.

Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. Some books invite you on a journey; others quietly rearrange the furniture of your mind while you?re not looking. A Summer Day in the Company of Ghosts by Wang Yin does a bit of both?though ?journey? here is less about distance and more about drifting through memory, language, and the occasional philosophical shadow that may or may not be following you. This is poetry, but not the kind that politely announces itself with neat meanings and tidy conclusions. Instead, Wang Yin offers fragments, observations, moments that feel both precise and elusive. There are ghosts here, certainly?but they?re not rattling chains or leaping out from behind curtains. They linger in the edges of thought, in history, in absence, in the strange way the present is never entirely free of what came before. The tone is deceptively calm. A summer day, after all, sounds harmless enough. Yet beneath that gentle surface runs something more reflective, even quietly unsettling. Time slips. Meaning shifts. A line that seems simple suddenly isn?t. It?s the literary equivalent of sitting in the sun and realising, after a while, that the light has changed and you?re not quite sure when. This 2022 New York Review of Books edition, in near fine condition, is a beautifully produced modern volume?clean, crisp, and entirely ready to sit on your shelf looking thoughtful. It?s the sort of book that suggests depth even before you open it, and then rewards that suspicion by delivering exactly that. Ideal for readers who enjoy poetry that doesn?t rush to explain itself, who appreciate atmosphere over instruction, and who are happy to spend time in the company of ideas that hover rather than land. Not so much a quick read as a quiet encounter?best approached with patience, curiosity, and perhaps a willingness to be gently haunted.
