About this product
Product Information
The North American debut of Tu S--poet, monk, scholar, dissident, and one of the great cultural figures of modern Vietnam--and a new bilingual edition to the Seedbank series. In addition to being a preeminent scholar of world philosophy and a Zen master, Tu S is one of Vietnam's most celebrated poets. He is a survivor of sixteen years of imprisonment and an eloquent witness to the tumult, tragedy, and resilience of his country over the last sixty years--and a full-length translation of his work into English is long overdue. Assembled and co-translated by Vietnamese poet and essayist Nguyen Ba Chung and acclaimed American poet Martha Collins, Dreaming the Mountain reflects a lifetime of creation, crisis, and commitment. With poems presented on facing pages in Vietnamese and English, this volume includes the early imagism of Tu S's Zen studies as a scholar and critic, midlife work that represents his attempted retreat from the devastation of war and subsequent years of imprisonment, and late, elliptical poems that give intensely lyrical expression to a lifetime of profound experience. From the "fleeting dream of red blood at dusk" to the quiet determination of one who sets out to "repaint the dawn," these poems reflect the journey of an artist who speaks for his country, who captures its darkness and its light. At once personal and universal, coolly observant and deeply compassionate, the poems of Tu S bring singular attention to a fleeting, painfully beautiful world.

Reviews
Praise for the Seedbank Series "Milkweed's Seedbank series is one of the most exciting and visionary projects in contemporary publishing. Taking the long view, these volumes run parallel to the much-hyped books of the moment to demonstrate the possibility and hope inherent in all great literature." --Stephen Sparks, Point Reyes Books Praise for Martha Collins's Translations "A dazzling poet whose poetry is poised at the juncture between the lyric and ethics, Collins has addressed some of the most traumatic social issues of the twentieth century in supple and complex poems."-- AWP Chronicle "Underlying tensions animate these arresting poems by Ngo Tu Lap [in Black Stars ], movingly translated by Martha Collins and the author. . . . We, as readers, are enriched." --Arthur Sze, author of Sight Lines "A delightful aspect of My Da's poetry [in Green Rice ] is the surprising way it summons human feeling from the ancient landscape, from river and field, from fruit and fragrant tree, culling a contemporary self from timeless images. In carrying this across into English, My Da could not have found better translators than Thuy Dinh and Martha Collins."-- John Balaban, author of Empires "[Nguyen Quang Thieu's The Women Carry River Water ] is both timely and necessary for those who are interested in learning more about contemporary Vietnamese culture, literature, and poetry. The translations are perfect." --Ngo Nhu Binh, Harvard University
