Det amerikanska f\u00f6rlaget New Direction publicerar i h\u00f6st ett urval av Xi Chuans poesi i \u00f6vers\u00e4ttning av Lucas Klein, Notes on the Mosquito<\/em>. Jag har l\u00e4st urvalet i manus. En del dikter finns med ocks\u00e5 i W&W IPs utg\u00e5va, men annat \u00e4r nytt och tidigare inte \u00f6versatt.<\/div>\n

Dikterna sp\u00e4nner sj\u00e4lvklart \u00f6ver s\u00e5v\u00e4l \u00e5rtusenden som \u00f6ver hela jordklotet.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
