The digital index page for ravel can be accessed at www.bonniekwong.info/ravel Blurbs In this "multilingual" collection of poems, Bonnie Wai-Lee Kwong writes of the subtext of terror in every "civilized good." Hidden histories, suffering, and injustice are calmly dissected by this poet with clear eyes and straight diction - words that at once enlighten, empower, and untangle. Koon Woon, author, Water Chasing Water, 2014 American Book Award winner. Bonnie Wai-Lee Kwong is a poet who "traffics in songs unsung." There is a musicality to her lines and a pervasive intelligence behind each piece. Sometimes she permits the rational, scientific part of her mind dominate but more often her poems are sensual, delicate yet fierce, dynamic, and probing. Read this book and savor its flame Susan Terris, Ghost of Yesterday, New & Selected Poems In ravel, Bonnie Kwong weaves from the disparate--from the quiet intimacies of love to the cruel depredations of history - an elegant fabric. Kwong's poems are spare, restrained, yet at the same time made rich by her knowledge of multiple languages and cultures. "How much sweetness do we need to swallow the bitter?" asks one speaker. Leslie McGrath, author, Out From the Pleiades

Описание: A few moments could change a future... Lily the cygnet, or baby swan, thinks she's going to have a simple life--grow-up peacefully, have a mate and cygnets of her own, and most of all, be happy. But when Lily learns that her species is being hunted by humans--and is becoming endangered because of it--she realizes that she doesn't want her happily ever after anymore. Instead, she wants to make a difference...But how can she help her dying species? And as if the young bird has enough to worry about, a sudden forest fire rips her beloved home apart, and she is separated from her family. Lily will finally have the chance to go to Horizon of Nature, the wondrous place where all animals live in peace--not to mention the only other place besides Forest of Ferns where her kind lives. And to Lily's surprise, she won't make this journey because she wants to, but because she needs to: Horizon of Nature is where she has hope to reunite with her family. Written by Natalie Kwong, the author of "Natalie's Notebook: Stories from the Heart", when she was eleven-years-old, Lily's journey to accomplish her dreams should not be overlooked.
