Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Before and since his enforced exile, Yang Lian has been one of the most innovative and influential poets in China. Widely hailed in America and Europe as a highly individual voice in world literature, he has been translated into many languages. Yang Lian has written that Concentric Circles i…s 'the most important piece since I came out from China', and that it is emphatically not a political work, but instead a work focused on 'deep reality' and the nature of how humans understand that reality through the medium of language. The book, like the sections of which it is comprised, uses a kind of collage, where many small fragments, each complete in itself, are aligned together in a series of patterns to form a grander mosaic: from line to line, poem to poem, cycle to cycle, in ever-widening concentric structures. Yang Lian regards this English version as an integral part of the work as a whole indeed, it could be said that the work is incomplete without its English parallel, and that as he reads it he is 'struggling free from time and incorporated into the beautiful "concentric circles" of ancient and modern poetry, in China or elsewhere'. This title is published in a dual language Chinese-English edition. Before and since his enforced exile Yang Lian has been one of the most innovative and influential poets in China. Concentric Circles is a work focused on deep reality and the nature of how humans understand that reality through the medium of language. Here fragments are aligned in patterns from poem to poem in ever-widening concentric structures. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Before and since his enforced exile, Yang Lian has been one of the most innovative and influential poets in China. Widely hailed in America and Europe as a highly individual voice in world literature, he has been translated into many languages. "Lee Valley Poems" is his first book to be whol…ly conceived and written in London, once his place of exile and now his permanent home. It includes an extended sequence, "When Water Confirms", translated by Brian Holton and Agnes Hung-Chong Chan, and a suite of shorter poems translated by several poets, most of these working with Yang Lian: Polly Clark, Antony Dunn, Jacob Edmond, W.N. Herbert, Pascale Petit, Fiona Sampson and Arthur Sze. The book's preface, A Wild Goose Speaks to me, takes as its springboard Yang Lian's comment 'There is no international, only different locals'. With this perspective, the Lee Valley of his first London poems becomes the international inside the local: the poet may travel far but never really leaves the ground of his own inner self, and the value and joy of poetry is seen as fishing in the deep sea of existence. This title is published in a dual language Chinese-English edition. "Lee Valley Poems" was Yang Lian's first book to be wholly conceived and written in London, once his place of exile and then his permanent home. It includes an extended sequence, "When Water Confirms", translated by Brian Holton and Agnes Hung-Chong Chan, and a suite of shorter poems translated by seven fellow poets.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A Tower Built Downwards is the latest instalment of poetry from one of the most innovative and influential poets from China. idely hailed in America and Europe as a highly individual voice in world literature, he has been translated into many languages. The different sections short poems, se…quences, and one long poem form a single comprehensive statement of Yangs recent explorations. It is rooted in his living experience of the historical retrogression of Hong Kong, the disaster of Covid-19, the global spiritual crisis, as well as his personal sadness at events such as his fathers death. Yang Lian's work was criticised in China in 1983 and formally banned in 1989 when he organised memorial services for the dead of Tiananmen while in New Zealand. This edition of A Tower Built Downwards contains the full, unabridged collection, including poems that were removed for its publication in China. Written between 2019 and 2021, A Tower Built Downwards is rooted in Yang Lian's living experience of the historical retrogression of Hong Kong, the disaster of Covid-19, and the global spiritual crisis, with an extraordinary cover by Ai Weiwei as metaphor for the book's content. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
