The International Left-Hand Calligraphy Association
A redefining, new collection of experimental poetry from Singaporean poet Hao Guang Tse. A breakthrough collection of experimental poetry, The International Left-Hand Calligraphy Association is a departure from Singaporean poet and author Hao Guag Tse's more formalist work that in three masterful sections explores and explodes the language of physical, social, and subconscious human experience. Every poem in The International Left-Hand Calligraphy Association is a breath, and each breath becomes a minute, hour, week, or year. Time, for Hao Guang Tse, is a bale of shredded moments and language is the great (dis)assembler. The calculated layering of the lyric is not a trick, but a redefinition of how to read and be read by the world--the sunlight, a pomelo, a crack in the earth. One will get lost in Tse's poetry, but also find a home in the humor, histories, and happenstance he creates.
