This collection, Amy Lai's first book of poems, contains work already seen in small literary journals in England, as well as other poems, printed here for the first time . It gives us snapshots of perception relating to childhood and schooldays in Hong Kong, life at the Chinese University, and a more independent, if lonelier, adulthood as a Cambridge graduate student. Her voice seeks expression of the Hong Kong-British hybridities seen through Chinese eyes and as experienced by her modern Hong Kong sensibility. From the preface by Andrew Parkin
