These poems, threaded by the teachings of Buddha, examine loss—the death of a loved one, the longing for a child, the yearning for another place and time—and the suffering such attempts transpire, but ultimately the poems are an affirmation that to be born into human life is our greatest opportunity to transform loss and sorrow into awakening joy.

Poesi inom Skonlitteratur

Reading Cathy Song is like bathing with every window wide open. Her poems are awakenings - recognitions of spirit in simple gestures, reminders of the uncommon music in our common tongue - such that even the elegiac and cautionary become inexplicably pleasing. In these beautiful poems, the body of our language is truly felt in a fresh light. - Mark Cox ""Cathy Song's outstanding poems combine delicacy of expression with a closely observed life. Her work is lyrical and tough at the same time; a mirror of a world which contains ambiguity, contradiction, and the prismatic and unflinching regard of the poet."" - Kathleen Spivack
