Publisher’s Synopsis (From its website)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Meditating on exile, loss, diaspora, authoritarian law, and altered ecologies, Joanne Leow\u2019s debut collection spans from the would-be Eden of hyper-planned and surveilled Singapore to an uneasy settling in the Canadian Prairies, seeking answers to the question of what is lost in intensive urban development and the journey across continents. Reflecting on relationships between lovers, parents and children, state and citizen, land and body, seas move away<\/em> asks what we owe each other across borders and what endures in times of great flux and irreversible ecological change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
