Extinction Theory is a collection of pseudoscience poems that try
to provide rationales for some of life's most salient mysteries.
Where is God? What does it mean to belong? Who killed the
dinosaurs? Kien Lam creates new worlds with new rules to better
answer these perennial questions. His poetry is that of discovery,
of looking at the world as if for the first time. Lam exposes the
transitory and transcendent nature of things and how we find
meaning. At the heart of this collection is also a cataloging of
the smaller "extinctions" in life. Every passing moment is the
death of something, and try as we might to recreate the feeling, it
can never be the same. Maybe it's a relationship. Maybe it's a
donut. It changes its shape as we juxtapose it against something
new. Extinction Theory is as much about language as it is about the
absence of language. Of English, of Vietnamese, and then of
neither.
