A Compilation to Keep!,

This review is from: Beyond Spring: T'Zu Poems of the Sung Dynasty (Paperback)
A splendid book! After ten years of regular reading, and thumb marks on every page, these poems still catch my breath with their beauty and sorrow. As a lay reader (not a scholar) the poems are completely accessible, and beautifully evoke the human essence of an age in China which we otherwise would ever know. If the poems have a unifying theme, it might be the bittersweet pain of longing and separation - but the varicolored mix of imagery and beautiful choice of words by Julie Landau give each of them a unique flair, sometimes humorous, sometimes tragic, always intriguing. This is my favorite book of poetry. Julie - another volume would be a gift to us all!
