THE SHARD BOX

Book ID/图书代码： 08143010B36355

English Summary/英文概要： This collection of poems eloquently captures the contradictions and multiple identities of modern China. Liz Niven has a keen eye for detail and a light touch that delivers an unexpected intensity; taking on ancient traditions and contemporary issues, this selection is in turn humorous and poignant and illustrates China as it is rarely seen. From the intimacy of the tea ceremony to the lives of the migrant workers in Beijing, nothing is as you would expect. The Shard Box is a testament to the poet’s emotional honesty, her willingness to explore and engage. It is a book that will linger with the reader long after it is finished.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 細數落花因坐久，緩尋芳草得遲歸--
這迷了路的塵世，何其迫切需要灌注詩的語言！
沏一壺茶，燃一盞燈；
品嚐「飛機上的詩人」LIZ NIVEN詩中的矛盾與多樣化！

這本合集詩完美地抓住了現代中國的矛盾和多樣性。
莉茲‧尼文眼光敏銳，透過細節，銜接緊湊；話題圍繞古代傳統和當代爭議，語言幽默熱情，呈現了一個與眾不同的中國。沒有什麼可以抵過茶對北京外來者的禮遇。本書見證了詩人情感上的忠誠以及她的尺度，是一本好書。(XJJ & SL)
