Writ: Poems by Jeffrey Thomas Leong

By Jeffrey Thomas Leong

This companion volume to Wild Geese Sorrow: The Chinese Wall Inscriptions at Angel Island was mostly written over the four-year period that the author worked on his wall poem translations. Here, Leong fully imagines Angel Island immigrant detainee life, what both his parents and ancestors once experienced. Most particularly, he explores his father's story seeking meaning and a measure of redemption.
