“For three decades now, Wai-lim Yip has been a linking figure between American modernism (in-the-line-of-Pound) and Chinese traditions and practices form which that modernism has long drawnHis two classic American works—in the lovely way that classic, as a word and concept, can still resonate in Chinese context—are his Pound’s Cathay and Chinese Poetry.”—Jerome Rothenberg, from the introduction to Between Landscapes: Poems by Wai-lim Yip
“Yip, himself a poet, captures the rhythm of Chinese nature poetry in his characteristically punctuated and contracted imagery. The inclusion of the word-for-word annotations is a feature that distinguishes the book from most anthologies of Chinese poetry in translation.”—Jing Wang, author of The Story of Stone
