Description
Living in the liminal space between time differences, here is a poet’s world of emotions, as she navigates an unfamiliar landscape of in-betweenness and otherness –from her writing desk to a walk around the most mesmerising lake in Beijing–where words are always out of reach.
Jennifer Wong’s pamphlet follows on from her 2020 full Nine Arches collection Letters Home.
