Description
Poetry. A lovely bilingual edition of the 8th century Chinese poets Li Bai and Du Fu, translated by Keith Holyoak with calligraphy by Hung-hsiang Chou. "Holyoak's clarity carries the profundity and complexity of the Chinese culture not dissimilar to our own. 'The wine keeps flowing; the moon keeps watch'"--London Magazine. "Keith Holyoak has succeeded in producing translations of Chinese poetry that achieve high literary excellence while conveying a real sense of the musicality of the originals"--Johanthan Chaves.
