Book description from Copper Canyon Press: "Weaving between the personal and cosmic I, Hu’s lyrics seek the “greenhouse” (a place of saturation, growth) as a poetic space to cultivate new modes through which our common language can once again illuminate and guide (lighthouse) existence and experience. The collection is full of longing for connection with others and something greater than our referential selves, while refusing to name or define what exactly is sought or how to reach it."
Hu's sense of connection, desire, and passion can be found throughout each poem, specifically the poem Windfall Apple, which is poetic eroticism at its best...at least that's how I read it.
Pictoral maps and a Notes page can be found within the book to help navigate readers as they journey through the book.
This book can be purchased on Amazon for $16
