An important voice in the ""Third Generation"" of contemporary
Chinese poets - younger poets whose work emerged beginning in the
late 1980s - Yang Ke has influenced his country's literary culture
for more than three decades. As the first English-language
collection of his poems, Two Halves of the World Apple introduces
readers to a prolific and accessible writer at the forefront of
Chinese poetry today. Rendered in English translations that deftly
capture Yang Ke's lyrical and idiomatic style, the 73 poems in this
volume reflect the depth, breadth, and evolution of the poet's
work. Yang Ke's poems, praised by literary critics for their use of
clear, distinctive language and linguistic and poetic texture, pair
arresting imagery with pointed social commentary. Moving across the
landscape of classical and modern Chinese poetry, they engage with
the natural, social, and moral complexities of the everyday modern
world, from evocative portrayals of South China's Zhuang minority
culture to stark, personal depictions of the consequences of
globalization. In this imaginative outpouring, the East and the
West become two halves of an apple - ""a ball struck by God's
bat,"" spinning through the cosmos - ""yin and yang fish chasing
each other's tails."" Thoughtfully annotated by lead translator
Denis Mair and with a foreword by Jonathan Stalling, this
collection of poems showcases the best work of one of the leading
lights of China's contemporary literary scene.
