The poems in "Anthropy" fuse the scope of classical traditions to
the disturbing agility of the moderns. Hsu artfully presents the
fierce rigour of the philosophical mind engaged with the survival
of histories.
"Anthropy," Ray Hsu's first book-length collection, is a work of
extraordinary range and precision. Excavating sites of human
cruelty and endurance, intimacy and experience, Hsu puts forth the
language to lead us into the inferno of our time.
He brings us to a place where the living, the dead, and the
imaginary cross paths. Odysseus meets Fernando Pessoa, James Dean
meets Walter Benjamin. All struggle with the same problem: their
pasts, visceral and desperate, continue to burn with the intensity
of the present.
