Peach State has its origins in Atlanta, Georgia, the author’s
hometown and an emblematic city of the New South, a name that
reflects the American region’s invigoration in recent decades by
immigration and a spirit of reinvention. Focused mainly on food and
cooking, these poems explore the city’s transformation from the
mid-twentieth century to today, as seen and shaped by Chinese
Americans. The poems are set in restaurants, home kitchens, grocery
stores, and the houses of friends and neighbors. Often employing
forms - sonnet, villanelle, sestina, palindrome, ghazal, rhymed
stanzas - they also mirror the constant negotiation with tradition
that marks both immigrant and Southern experience.
