Detailed with observation and personal experience, honest and clear in their vision, these poems reflect upon the poet&#8217;s Asian and Western identities. Ancient legends counterpoint modern reality; beauty and peace are offset by the rawness of death and dying. Erudite and referential in both cultures, these poems are also intelligent and accessible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section>\n<div class=\"narrow\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wide\">\n<h3>Links<\/h3>\n<p>Publisher <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mawenzihouse.com\/\">Mawenzi House<\/a> (formerly TSAR)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Betty Warrington-Kearsley was born in England but grew up with her Chinese family in Singapore.
