Publisher's Synopsis
Throughout this collection, water is a challenge but always represents renewal. The poet observes how life unfolds, from East to West: the transformation of Hong Kong over the years; the beauties and troubles of Asia and of other countries; the re-visitation of her homeland-a place of longing and contradictions-which appears at times blurred, after many years of living abroad. And in the last section, through the wide use of metaphors, the reader will find vivid descriptions of the many facets of everyday life-among which are love, friendship, motherhood, and writing.
