Beschreibung

I seldom see American poets write in Chinese. J.D. Scrimgeour is a special case. It's amazing for an American to write such wonderful poems in idiomatic Chinese. I particularly appreciate the methods of word-play and humor used in these beautiful poems. - Zhang Ziqing, Poet, Translator, Scholar, author of A History of 20th Century American Poetry (3 Volumes)
