Book Description:

In these highly original poems, the young American Chinese poet, Tan Lin, "sets tooth on the treetops" as language twists and tumbles over itself like a "Chickory Lickery Bock". In this marvelous celebration of language, Tan Lin explores "a meditation backwards", inventing new poetic structures and forms as he creates a dialogue between himself and the significant other Reader.
