Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

...Legaspi, like William Carlos Williams, can find poetry anywhere. And like his mentor Pablo Neruda he seems able to locate the mysterious and the magical in the most common and overlooked objects. It is difficult to overestimate the daring and resourcefulness required to complete successfully this astonishingly original book. I believe this collection of poetry, so rich in the dailyness of the world and what wisdom we can draw from it, is ample evidence that Joseph O. Legaspi has arrived to a place none of his ancestors in life or in poetry have ever journeyed, and we his readers are the richer for it.--Philip Levine

Synopsis:

These elegant poems tackle issues of identity, domesticity and sexuality, shattering preconceived notions of Asians and Asian men in this first collection by a Filipino-born writer.
