Description

Shirley Geok-lin Lim a uniqueness to her poetry which neither past nor contemporary, Eastern nor Western writers can claim. Professor Lim has also a legitimate claim within the Chinese-American canon. Like Maxine Hong Kingston and Amy Tan, she represents an important voice in breaking the long silence of an ethic group, in articulating concerns of 'place' and 'gender'. Poems selected from Modern Secrets and No Man's Grove with the complete Crossing The Peninsula -- winner of the commonwealth Poetry Prize 1980.
