Description
Jody Chan writes, " have you ever found your specific wounds curled up in a song / written by someone else?" sick is medicine and music. This book unearths a tenderness unknown to me before reading these poems and witnessing their " humble magic." Chan's lyric is a landscape I return to find myself. How lucky are we to be living and reading while Jody Chan is writing and teaching us how to be " warm & unafraid" -- what a tremendous, marvelous gift. -- Yujane Chen
