Jill Chan's new collection is a gathering of poems written from the period between 2000-2007. This book collects not just the poems not in her previous publications but represents what is rare and what we see as work coming to us from its own time to arrive in ours.

Jill Chan's fifth collection of poetry is a sequence on love--the many sides of romance, the depths of longing, and other subtleties in between. "There was this sound then nothing after; a quickness then what quickened you; a style then how we stood aside like a generous condemnation, like delight at something gone, never to be confused again with coming."
