About
God is personal, the astrologer said. Terrifying and also personal, like a baby. Amy Ching-Yan Lam's Baby Book documents the meeting of spirit and the senses. With a direct, humorous voice, Baby Book guides us between inherited structures and elemental forces. Anchored by stories from family and fable, Lam's poems foreground perception over memoir. How can the vastness of experience be known, especially when subject to capitalism? Baby Book responds to the overwhelming phenomena of life and history with tenderness and resistance.
