Yu Yan Chen's debut collection takes us on a wandering across
continents. Whether it is a courtyard in rural China, a ferry in
Istanbul, or Times Square in New York, each poem is an unbeaten
track imbued with poet's at once intense but refreshing insights
about family, home, identity and the quest for inner strength. The
opening verse asks the readers to imagine guitar legend Djongo
Reinhardt's fingers grinding the strings after two of them were
badly burned in a fire, and "every nerve aflame" is the prelude to
poems that transcend memories and losses into melodies of hope and
light. These distilled joys and fears, set against the backdrops of
Yu Yan Chen's creative use of language and her cinematic visions,
will transport the readers to a passionate conversation about the
essence of being alive. SMALL HOURS lights up your sky and brings
flowers to your table.
