Taking its concept of concentricity from the eponymous Ralph Waldo
Emerson essay, "Circle," the first collection from Victoria Chang,
adopts the shape as a trope for gender, family, and history. These
lyrical, narrative, and hybrid poems trace the spiral trajectory of
womanhood and growth and plot the progression of self as it ebbs
away from and returns to its roots in an Asian American family and
context. Locating human desire within the helixes of politics,
society, and war, Chang skillfully draws arcs between T'ang Dynasty
suicides and Alfred Hitchcock leading ladies, between the Hong Kong
Flower Lounge and an all-you-can-eat Sunday brunch, the Rape of
Nanking and civilian casualties in Iraq.
