Sobre IBD

General Description:A Single-winged Bird is an experimenting genre of personal book. It contains 42 poems, one riddle-cracking love story, and about 60 one-way emails. The poems and the short novel are bilingual in Chinese and English, and the one-way emails are largely in English with occasional texts in Chinese. Poems, novel, and email letters are magically woven into one tapestry of rare self-expression, reflecting a Chinese American’s pursuit in love, intellectual freedom, and spiritual liberation. In her novel, Edna meets DC on the sixth day of every month for ten years since 2001. Then they cohabit for 26 years, and move to live at Walden Pond until DC runs away from home at the age of 108. Does he dash onto a Metro train and die a suicidal motor rider? ...

Paul Keller is the Stephen Dedalus of the piece, the son of Robert and Sylvie, whose internal monologue is spliced into the action, and whose incestuous feelings for his sister lead to an increase in his...
