Description

The poems in this issue, selected by Singaporean poet Alvin Pang and Perth-based poet Miriam Wei Wei Lo, explore and magnify, through myriad voices and frames, new possibilities for perceiving and understanding Asia. The guest editors highlight the abilities of poetry to stir, delight, challenge, trouble and question categories, definitions, identities and ways of being. Presenting their poetry editorial as a conversation, the guest editors open-heartedly share their own experiences of, relationships to and negotiations through Asia and Asian-ness, and suggest how poems can play a part in honouring that complexity. Featuring work by Desmond Kon, George Szirtes, John Mateer, Stephanie Dogfoot, Es Foong, Lucy Van, Lee Sumyeong, Yeow Kai Chai and more.
