There's an architect dispelling illusions and inviting us into communal living. The poems collected in The Ruins rise from a primordial wisdom that resists the quarrels of the marketplace, that keeps company under a leaky authoritarian roof and rubs off its burn, that carves out its own impossible freedom. In Dong Li's luminous translation of Ye's first full-length collection, each poem braids myth and mystery, inviting the reader into a liminal space where \"echoes of the ancient, the imagined, and the 'now' sound off each other\" on the page (The Cincinnati Review).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Deep Vellum Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49245703504099,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/3758\/6147\/files\/9781646054053-1.jpg?v=1788402854","url":"https:\/\/usa.kinokuniya.com\/products\/9781646054053","provider":"Books Kinokuniya USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
