Naturalism

“The tremendous pleasure of following the vectors of Wendy Xu’s sharp and sparkling mind makes these poems transformative. “What if truly one builds an empire of doubt,” she asks and so an uncanny world she builds that lives in opening, endless, glimmering opening. Elegant. Outright dangerous. She is leading my sight across our terrific landscape. No, she’s building it in me.” -Solmaz Sharif
