A Thought-Provoking Beautiful Book--Must Have,
By Xuan Huong "Huong" (Houston, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Why Is The Edge Always Windy? (Perfect Paperback)
This is a wonderful book of poems and I highly recommend it. Mong-Lan's writing may be described as writing of the Vietnamese diaspora, a generation that left Vietnam during the mid-70's, but it is so much more than this. Her subject matter is far ranging, from Vietnam to Houston to New York City to La Vigny (Switzerland) to Phnom Penh to the desert of Arizona. Her language is taut and spare, but at times quiet, pensive, but lush and dramatic. She is not afraid to explore 9-11 or the insanity of love. She has an artist's sensibility and an unerring musician's ear.
A rare bonus is that her beautiful drawings and calligraphy are also included in this fine book. Hooray! |
