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

Opening with an exit, the poems in Precedented Parroting <\/em>accept no assumptions. With the determination and curiosity of a problem-solving crow, this expansive debut plumbs personal archives and traverses the natural world, endeavouring to shake the tight cage of stereotypes, Asian and avian. Praised as \u201clively and intelligent\u201d and \u201clyrically delicious,\u201d Barbara Tran\u2019s poetry offers us both the keen eye and grace of a hawk, \u201cred-tailed gliding \/ on time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
