Ouyang Yu

Flag of Permanent Defeat Ouyang Yu

A work of defiance, Ouyang Yu's most recent bilingual collection gathers much of his experimental work, with some of the poems collected in this book dating as far back as late 1982. An exploratory mixture of sound poetry, asemic poetry, photograph poetry, conceptual poetry, found poetry, and pinyin poetry, Ouyang's latest collection flows in a seamless mixture of Chinese and English, with some of his most interesting poetry yet.
