Paperback. Etat : Good. Twenty essays about Bei Dao's life in exile since Tiananmen Square. "Knowledge of death is the only key that can open midnight's gate."Bei Dao Bei Dao has gained international acclaim over the last decade for his haunting interior poetic landscapes; his poetry is translated and published in some twenty-five languages around the world. Now, in Midnight's Gate, Bei Dao redefines the essay form with the same elliptical precision of his poetry, but with an openness and humor that complements the complexity of his poems. The twenty essays of Midnight's Gate form a travelogue of a poet who has lived in some seven countries since his exile from China in 1989. The work carries us from Palestine to Sacramento. At one point we are led into a basement in Paris for a production of Gorky's Lower Depths, the next moment we are in the mountains of China where Bei Dao worked for eleven years as a concrete mixer and ironworker. The subjective experience deepens and multiplies in these essays, filled with the stories of ordinary Chinese immigrants, as well as those of literary, artistic, and political figures. And it all coheres with a poet's observations, meditations, and memories.…

Paperback. Etat : Like New. A TIME MUST-READ BOOK OF 2024 A 2024 NPR BOOK WE LOVE A NEW YORKER BEST BOOK OF 2024 LONGLISTED FOR THE 2025 GRIFFIN POETRY PRIZE Sidetracks, Bei Dao?s first new collection in almost fifteen years, is also the poet?s first long poem and his magnum opus?the artistic culmination of a lifetime devoted to the renewal and reinvention of language. ?As a poet, I am always lost,? Bei Dao once said. Opening with a prologue of heavenly questions and followed by thirty-four cantos, Sidetracks travels forward and backward along the divergent paths of the poet?s wandering life?from his time as a Young Pioneer in Beijing, through the years of exile living in six countries, back to the rural construction site where he worked during the Cultural Revolution, to the ?sunshine tablecloth? in his kitchen in Davis, California, and his emotional visit home after a thirteen-year separation (?the mother tongue has deepened my foreignness?). All the various currents of our times rush into his lifelines, reconfigured through the ?vortex of experience? and the poet?s encounters with friends and strangers, artists and ghosts, as he moves from place to place, unable to return home. As the poet Michael Palmer has noted, ?Bei Dao?s work, in its rapid transitions, abrupt juxtapositions, and frequent recurrence to open syntax evokes the un-speakability of the exile?s condition. It is a poetry of explosive convergences, of submersions and unfixed boundaries, ?amid languages.?.…
