Book
In the Tongue of Ghosts (First Word Press, 2016) is a collection of the first poems I wrote and performed, examining identity, belonging, and coming of age in the Bay Area as a grandchild of Chinese immigrants. Between diaspora angst and unrequited crushes, these early articulations map the obsessions I continue to write through: history and myth, language and death, poetry as a practice of mourning and becoming.
