across a geography that ranges from plains of glacial ice to idyllic green pastures

回 / Return Erik Lindner Ed RobersonEmily Lee Luan Rooted in the classical tradition of the Chinese reversible poem, Return is engaged in the act of looking backtoward an imagined homeland and a childhood of suburban longing, through migratory passages, departures, and etymologies, and into the various holes and voids that appear in the telling and retelling of history. The poems ask: What is feeling? What is melancholy? Can language translate either?
