Publisher Description:
The poetry of Hanna Fransisca is heavily-laden with Chinese cultural metaphors. The pleasures of eating and cooking might be shadowed by violence and sacrifice, or even eroticism and sadism. We hear multiple voices in Fransisca's poetry: those of both the minority Chinese and all the women who struggle against the confines of patriarchy.
