Li Kan

Speak Out an Emotion Li Kan

Dumpster Fire Press is proud to partner with translator Xi Nan in bringing poet Li Kan's work from China into the West. Li Kan's poetry writing uses a lot of spoken language, and the contents of his writing also focus on personal daily life and emotional experience. On this basis, he puts forward the writing concept of "flow of life" (???). In recent years, Li Kan has experienced a lot of philosophical thinking in addition to his daily writing. The ideas of Heidegger, Laozi, Zhuang Zhou and others have a certain influence on the formation of his writing philosophy. In poetry writing, this also makes Li Kan's poems show a good internal order, harmony and rationality.
