Paperback. Condition: New. If I Do Not Reply is the first UK collection by Hong Kong poet Tammy Lai-Ming Ho, and brings us a welcome new voice to speak of matters in a place too often seen through expatriate, rather than native eyes. Hong Kong may once have been a borrowed place, on borrowed time, situated physically in one world, and mentally somewhere between two, but its current uncomfortable position finds an apt chronicler here."A unique poetic testament of life in and out of Hong Kong between 2019 and 2022, spanning the Covid epidemic, and unrelentingly outspoken and courageous in defence of human freedoms facing systemic repression. Yet subject matter isn't all. Gifted in every aspect of her poetic craft. Tammy Lai-Ming Ho is witty, clever, passionate - and acutely observant of the inner life. Although written with a Hong Kong sensibility, these poems transcend contemporality and location. They map our times: all our times." -Richard Berengarten.

Recounting its history may seem a formidable task, but no other major literature has been so extensively preserved over so long a period. Moreover, the slow evolution of the various literary forms, which developed separately at recognizable points in time, makes it possible to identify a particular form or genre with the period in which it predominated; thus it is possible to speak of "Tang poetry" or "Yuan drama" or the "Ming novel." This is the first major study of Chinese literature since the beginning of the century, and it covers the subject right up to the contemporary scene. One of the most important parts of the book concerns writing since the Literary Revolution, when the spoken language was adopted as the sole literary medium and Western influences became more important. In addition to being an excellent comprehensive history of Chinese literature told in terms of its outstanding exponents, this book also provides copious translations from Chinese writers, ancient, classical and modern, many of them trans lations of works never before available to English~speaking readers.
paperback. Condition: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
