NEW PAMPHLET BY SHANKAR & SZIRTES! A Field Guide to Southern China
We are incredibly proud to be bringing out this Monday a new pamphlet by major poets George Szirtes (pictured) & Ravi Shankar (for sale here as well as in good bookshops).
In 2016, award-winning Hungarian British poet George Szirtes and Indian American poet Ravi Shankar spent a month in China on a residency at Sun Yat Sen University in Guangzhou. Traveling to the scenic spot of Yangshou, located along the Li River in the Southeast of Guilin Province and with views of the spectacular karst mountains all around, the two poets wrote this collaborative poem that delved into some of the conundrums and sublimity of life in contemporary China.
