The Boy Who Catches Wasps - Duo Duo

Poetry. Asian Studies. "Duo Duo's poems in English rivet us with their obsidian sharp images and their evocative connotations"--Forrest Gander. "A major presence in Chinese poetry since his days with the `Obscure' poets of the 1970s; a dissident whose crime was writing the poems he wanted to write...a former opera singer who compresses the grand passions into single lines...a Beijing poet whose images seem to come from some remote and rural village; a political poet who makes no statements; a realist poet in an alternate universe. Duo Duo is one of the mountains in the topographical map of contemporary world poetry, and it's nearly scandalous that this excellent selection and translation by his long-time collaborator, Gregory Lee, is his first American Book"--Eliot Weinberger.
