New Issue of Cerise Press

The new issue of Cerise Press, the French-based English-language online literature journal, is now available. In addition to translations of poems by editor Fiona Sze-Lorrain of Chinese poets Lan Lan 蓝蓝 and Bai Hua 柏桦 (who’s also interviewed), the current issue features translations of Korean poet Ko Un by Brother Anthony of Taizé and of French poet Auxeméry by one the most secretly influential writer of the last half-century, Nathaniel Tarn.
