Synopsis

I
n Anything in Turquoise, Wendy Klein takes us on a global journey across the Far East, the US and Scandinavia. The poems begin in Mongolia and the Gobi desert, Vietnam and Cambodia, witnessing cultures in varying states of disrepair and the sense of half a holocaust / under my feet . We then move West, with poems on post-Katrina New Orleans, and Klein s own troubled history growing up Jewish in California. Raw but filled with tenderness and humour, this collection rises out of a relentless hunger to explore.
