About the Book
|
|
Seventy-six meditations, prosepoems and tonepoems on the Southeast Asian landscape evoking interior calls and correspondences in aesthetic, cultural, social, and spiritual realms. Its physical geography of China, Taiwan and Northeast and Southeast Asia hastens toward the heart: Design radiating inward from circumfluent externals to that place of “stillness, and dark,[of] all that is absent, and not.” Mimetic sensory experience of “Asia” and “Asian” is remade with an outsider’s freshness that weighs “Cathay” with “Christmas,” tradition-rich heritage with the “breathless poor” and “rickshaw baggage” culture. A gathering poised between extremes of psyche and sense, it resonates with dreamscape, cityscape, and seascape cognitive, painterly, and visceral zen-like moods. EVERYTHING SPEAKING CHINESE’s quinquepartite landscape of vision recreates one art of-a-piece with its “blissful, invisible people” “you can almost hear/[as] fresh Asian spirits not yet setting out for the other side.”
