Jinjin Xu: THERE IS STILL SINGING IN THE AFTERLIFE
Description
Radix Media is proud to present one of the winners in our inaugural Own Voices Chapbook Prize, There Is Still Singing in the Afterlife by poet JinJin Xu.
An elegiac illumination of personal and political histories misremembered and censored, There Is Still Singing in the Afterlife is animated by the intimate language of spirits—living, loved, and gone—singing to us from the hereafter.
A poet of deep noticing, JinJin Xu interrogates the nature of witness and memory, taking seriously the consequence of confession in a foreign land, in a language not her own. Xu grapples with a forbidden language—blending the lyric with confession and erasure to sing the unspeakable, to open our eyes to seek the light. This is a stellar debut from a poet you should watch out for.
