Description

The Kingsbury Tales: A Complete Collection
by Ouyang Yu.

Otherland Publishing, Victoria, 2012.
Reprint, revised limited edition. Paperback.

4 of 100 copies. Signed by author.

Cover design by Luke Harris.

‘This work is much more personalised than its namesake, The Canterbury Tales… nothing is romanticised. This is straight-talk poetry. No bullshit. Yu does not wish to demonstrate longing. He depicts anger. Rage against racism. Rage against language. Rage against China and her drive to be Western. Rage against Australia and her lack of drive.’ – Heather Taylor-Johnson, Cordite Poetry Review, 6 February 2009.

Condition: Slight corner curl otherwise near fine.
