Having a bit of an emotional week saying goodbye to a phase of my family’s life, and this latest endorsement from the wonderful Mary Jean Chan that came in this morning tipped me over into tears I’d been holding in. I’m so so grateful to all these early readers and their reception of these poems.
The cover of this too is a glistening on a blue-purple-pink gradient background. The cover is a cyanotype of two leaves. The cover is printed in bright pink.
These fieldnotes burst through with vivid and slow time. Gleamingly suffused with an architecture - an ecotecture - of small details, this accretion of textures and feelings meditatively render what it means to sense oneself and to sense the other in a world made different. - Jay Gao
