Description

"Sze-Lorrain offers a ... vision of humanity marked by perils, surprises, and the transcendence of a 'ruined elegance.' Through an intercultural journey that traces lives, encounters, exiles, and memories from France, America, and Asia, the poet explores a rich array of historical and literary allusions to European masters, Asian sources, and American influences"--Dust jacket flap.
