In the Roar of the Machine (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by New York Review Books, New York, 2025
ISBN 10: 1681379384 ISBN 13: 9781681379388
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Poems about life in the Chinese factories by a brilliant and passionate poet and workers rights activist. This collection shines light on the human toll behind the production of cheap goods, all set in the context of classical Chinese literature, the natural environment of southern China, and the voices of the poet's own ancestors.Zheng Xiaoqiong is one of the most significant living Chinese poets whose unique poetics brings to the fore the plight of factory workers, women, and the rural poor in contemporary China, while situating these sociological concerns within a larger context that includes classical Chinese poetry, the voices of Zhengs ancestors, the natural environment of southern China, and her native Huangma Mountains in central Sichuan.Zheng spent nearly a decade working in the factories and warehouses of Guangdong province, one of the largest manufacturing centers in the world. Her poems give voice to the global economys human toll: the twelve-hour days on the assembly line, the endless mechanical din, the injuries and drudgery, the homesick murmur of far-flung dialects in the dorms.Zheng is an advocate for workers and womens rights, but what counters the roar of the machines in her poetry is the tenderness of her attention: we / live, the nearby crowds that come and go / they live in my poetry, on paper, immense / yet frail, the tiny voices of these sentences / these fragile hearts.

In the Roar of the Machine (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Giramondo Publishing Co, Artarmon, 2022
ISBN 10: 1922725285 ISBN 13: 9781922725288
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This selection collects some of the most influential and moving work of the poet Zheng Xiaoqiong, who spent nearly a decade at the beginning of the century working in the newly created factories and warehouses in what has become one of the largest manufacturing centers in the world, southern China. Her poetry is full of the dramatic details of days and nights spent in physical labor, the din of the workshops, the acute dangers associated with working with heavy machinery, and the exploitation, abuse, and indignity workers are subject to given the pressures of global capitalism and a lack of oversight and protection. But the poems also speak of pleasure and of love, memories of the ancestors, the natural environment of southern China and her native Huangma Mountains in central Sichuan. Zheng writes moving portraits of her fellow workers, voices the rarely addressed issues facing women workers in particular, and paints a vivid picture of the vast population of migrant labourers, displaced from their homes and desperately seeking ways to express their experiences. She is a poet of this century, speaking to a community which consumes the products of this labour: from iPhones to Christmas decorations to the components of machinery used across the world.
