Features: In the 1990s, a large number of foreign literary works were introduced to China, bridging Chinese literature with world literature and giving rise to many outstanding poets. Due to the collision and debate of literary concepts, people held firm to their own views. Because of the greater focus on disputes and topics, many excellent poems were overlooked and faded into obscurity. The ten poets featured in this volume have diverse styles, but at the same time, one can glimpse their exceptional clarity and self-respect in practicing poetic language and space. This book is a new collection of poems by Yi Sha, one of the most representative and influential poets in Chinese poetry since the 1990s. It is a selection of short poems written by the author from 1999 to 2002. With his lone and determined stance, Yi Sha has achieved remarkable accomplishments in 20th-century Chinese poetry, making his name almost synonymous with "1990s Poetry." In the new century, in the era of the internet, Yi Sha has once again become a leading figure in poetic trends with his continuously innovative yet solid and effective writing. In his escape and challenge from his own status as a pioneer symbol, his works remain sharp and enigmatic while also becoming calmer, deeper, and more introspective, moving toward openness and breadth. This book records the poet's transformation through the very poetry itself. The enduring charm of humanity is the deep bond already formed between the author of this book and his loyal readership.
