Crevasse

Autor Nicholas Wong
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 iul 2015
"Crevasse," Hong Kong-based writer Nicholas Wong's newest collection of poetry, starts with an epigraph from Maurice Merleau-Ponty that notes the impossibility of observing one's own physical body and, therefore, the necessity of a "second," "unobservable" body from which to view one's own. The poems in "Crevasse" seek to uncover the thread connecting these mutually observed and observing bodies. Like Samuel Beckett and others before him, Wong has deliberately chosen to write in a non-native language-English, his second language after Cantonese. Freed from the assumptions and conventions of his mother tongue, Wong strips down, interrogates and ultimately reorients the fragmented complexities of the multiple communities he inhabits-queer, Asian, poet, reader, lover-in a collection of poems that exposes the gap between familiarity and the inevitable distance of the body.
