Description

Derek Chung's poems capture the East-meets-West synergy of Hong Kong's cosmopolitan culture, while tracking the city's myriad transformations over the past two decades. Though his poems bear the influence of Anglophone poets such as Elizabeth Bishop and Seamus Heaney, Hong Kong is at the heart of his work. Writing through the lens of a father, restaurant-goer, dreamer, flaneur, protester, and more, Chung captures a city in motion-and the joy, loss, and heartbreak that comes with loving Hong Kong.
