About the Book

Li Zhimin, a stellar poet and scholar from Guangzhou (China), has written a book of English language poems, bringing to this new language a fresh style and perspective, both delightful and edifying, poems that have a wary (and savvy) ingenuousness. Rather than write poems in the idiom of "the American," Li takes delight in foreignizing the familiar and making familiar the foreign. These are poems at the intersection of East and West, or perhaps better to say poems where the one melts into the other, creating a new kind of syncretism (what Li calls "Zhongalish"). -Charles Bernstein, University of Pennsylvania
About the Author: Li Zhimin is a poet in both the English and Chinese languages. He has published numerous chapbooks of poems since 2001. His most recent poems collection Zhongalish: Think and Feel Globally is to be published in August of 2016, which he is going to read on Nov. 25 at Kelly Writers House in University of Pennsylvania. Currently, Li serves as Chief Professor of Western Literature Studies at the School of Foreign Studies, Guangzhou University, and is Director of both its Modern Poetry Studies Centre and Foreign Languages Training Centre. He is also a Fellow of the British and American Language and Literature Studies Institute of Sun Yat-sen University, and of the English Poetry Studies Institute (EPSI) at Sun Yat-sen University. He is Deputy President and Secretary-General of the English Language Poetry Studies Association of China, Board Member of Chinese / American Association for Poetry and Poetics (CAAP) and has been the prime mover of The Pearl River Poetry Conference, a gathering of Chinese and English poets held in Guangzhou in 2005 and 2008. Li Zhimin's publications reflect his broad interests in modern culture, philosophy, modernism and contemporary poetry and their interrelations, in pedagogy, and in poetic and translation theory. He was a Fulbright Scholar at the University of California Santa Barbara in 2008. He was invited to give a lecture and a reading at Kelly Writers House in February of 2009. He is currently a visiting professor at University of Pennsylvania.
