Formalistically rich and varied, these poems do not blink in the face of grief, but shelter there. Chen \"curse[s] the wide width of the wound\" and creates a world in which her poems link arms to enter the blistering present. A demonstration of the daily rituals of love, these elegies swell with humanity as death draws near. \"The body knows. \/ The night knows and the body listens.\" \u003cem\u003eLight waves\u003c\/em\u003e simultaneously reminds us of what we already know and what we too often forget: there just isn't enough time, and yet, an abundance of joy is everywhere, for each of us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-Omotara James, Song of My Softening\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kirsten Shu-Ying Chen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1947896555\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781947896550\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Terrapin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/18\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.25d","brand":"Kirsten Shu-Ying Chen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44056836735231,"sku":"9781947896550","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4324b55c-2512-4dfa-8a89-61dbf861b01e.jpg?v=1685043533","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/light-waves-kirsten-shu-ying-chen-9781947896550","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
