Description
Letters Home, Jennifer Wong’s remarkable and vivid third collection of poems, unravels the complexities of being between nations, languages and cultures. Travelling across multiple borders of history and place, these poems examine what it means to be returning home, and whether it is a return to a location, a country or to a shared dream or language.
“There are poems of homesickness, nostalgia, but also humour, hope and optimism – all depicted in Wong’s distinctive, intelligent style… This is a remarkable collection, which makes a new and bold contribution to the genre of diaspora literature.” – Hannah Lowe
“Jennifer Wong’s voice is captivating, compassionate, her poems full of insight, as she questions the complex relationship between culture and identity and what it means to leave a place to become defined by another.” – Rebecca Goss
