A Week with Beijing by Meg Eden (2015)
A Week With Beijing
Meg Eden
Neon Books
(c)2015
Why is it "with" and not "in"? Because, in this fine collection of poems, Beijing is a person. A woman. A woman who, at least in one of the poems, foreshadows the terrible events we are now living through by talking about not using a cough mask. The city and the woman and the country merge into one overlapping and color swirl of mess. Worth the read, worth collecting.
