“Instead of the monumental ‘Who Am I,’ Lu refracts identity to show how we are as much the small hopes we have for our children as the faded memories we have of a distant home. Or the rumors we try to outrun.” Easily one of the most pleasurable reads in quite a while.

All is bartered, betrayed and bereaved / The black wing of death quivered near / All is torn by a terrible grieving / So how can this radiance appear?
