Composed across seven years and 224 poems, this Double Trilogy traces the evolution of a bond that begins in memory, expands through digital intimacy, and culminates in a metaphysical union that transcends distance, time, and mortality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook I: Soulmeeting\u003c\/strong\u003e ignites the journey. When the speaker reunites with his first muse, Qi Hong, the encounter unleashes a torrent of memory, longing, and emotional rebirth. Poems move between Cultural Revolution youth, present-day Vancouver, and the shock of rediscovered affection. Through mathematics, cosmology, and intimate recollection, the poet charts the reawakening of a devotion thought long extinguished-what he calls \"a record-breaking longitudinal study of the heart's capacity to regenerate.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook II: Soulmating\u003c\/strong\u003e deepens the connection into a digital and spiritual union lived across hemispheres. Through WeChat calls, handwritten letters, dreams, and metaphysical imagination, the lovers build a shared virtual sanctuary where desire, philosophy, and devotion intertwine. Their intimacy becomes mythic and philosophical-rooted in quantum entanglement, yin-yang duality, and the metaphysics of longing. Dreams, vows, and emotional rituals sustain a relationship that defies geography, age, and circumstance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook III: Soulmelting\u003c\/strong\u003e completes the transformation. The lovers finally merge-body, mind, and spirit-into a single enduring reality. These poems confront aging, mortality, sensuality, and transcendence with clarity sharpened by decades of yearning. Their union becomes a metaphysical truth that outlives the body, culminating in \u003cem\u003eBamakoola\u003c\/em\u003e, a private paradise \"small as the screen of a cellphone, but much larger than the whole planet,\" where the lovers dwell beyond the constraints of the physical world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlending lyricism, philosophy, sensuality, and cultural memory, \u003cem\u003eBamakoola\u003c\/em\u003e stands as a singular literary monument: a testament to the resilience of the heart, the persistence of memory, and the ways love can evolve beyond distance, time, and even death.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yuan Changming\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1774034417\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781774034415\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Silver Bow Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/19\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 246\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.52d","brand":"Yuan Changming","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":50665757802751,"sku":"9781774034415","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d1004f38-f008-4296-b461-304282bfe845.jpg?v=1792013741","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bamakoola-yuan-changming-9781774034415","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
