Apparitions of Asia

Modernist Form and Asian American Poetics

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Apparitions of Asia traces a literary intimacy between the U.S. and East Asia that spans the twentieth century. Commercial and political bridges generated trans-Pacific literary alliances, and Park analyzes American bards who capitalized on these ties and interrogates the price of such intimacies in the work of Asian American poets.
