DESCRIPTION:
Owen (Chinese and comparative literature, Harvard) explores issues of love poetry in Chinese and Western poetry. He argues that comparisons need cross cultures and time periods. Portland, Or.. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc
Five Stars A Customer This is the kind of literary criticism that makes one believe in the process. Owen lovingly takes up texts from vastly different worlds and times and convinces us that our desires, our hopes, our dreams are much more similar than we could ever attempt to deny. It is a love letter to literature, but it seduces us all.
