AUX ARCS booking
Review at asianamlitfans English A really enjoyable collection of poetry covering the desert the Anthropocene the landscape of human disconnectivity and reimagination I thoroughly enjoyed the foray into worlds near and far The range is indeed a crater of diamond English
From the publisher s page Shin Yu Pai s new collection of poems Aux Arcs is rooted in the Ozarks but makes arches and connections across the globe In taut luminous lines she explores cross cultural tensions and digs ever deeper to claim the warmth of metaphoric stone hollowed out from the body s beryl Arthur Sze In poems both brilliant and spacious Shin Yu Pai creates a language to inhabit the in between places of the world and imagination An apple might be the spoils of urban foraging or a childhood memory a persimmon might be a domestic failure or an expression of enlightenment As large as international politics as small as the death of a cat these poems work the metaphoric connection at the root of poetry.
EBook AUX arcsoft Miriam Sagan A good tour guide is one who is curious about her surroundings enjoying as much the learning about new things as she does sharing the information with others Thus we find the perfect guide in Shin Yu Pai who maps a centuries long tour in Aux Arcs of China Chile South Africa and other locations through a residency in the United States Deep South From Arkansas and Texas the poet shines a global light on the geographic monoliths of the natural world and the manmade marvels of architecture and visual art just as she illuminates humanity s interior motivations and misconceptions of the other As temporary voyeurs readers follow Pai s keen eye and ear through a structure wide in arc but sharp in focus Aux Arcs is a book you ll want to visit like the best museums again and again letting the ideas and images of prior reads inform and enhance your future tours Chip Livingston AUX ARCSI am the author of numerous poetry books..
