Moving House and other Poems from Hong Kong was prompted by happenings and thoughts at a time of change. The poems connect new with earlier events, sights, ideas and information, and draw on both urban and rural environments. These poems arose within a variety of cultures, in Hong Kong, the United Kingdom, and in several other countries. Readers from many backgrounds and various ways of life should find points of contact with this poetry, which presents varied experience in words that many will find deceptively simple. As with Gillian Bickley's earlier poetry book, For the Record, the CD included in Moving House is a professional recording of all the poems in this collection, read by the author. The essay on new Hong Kong English language poetry is the text of a talk given in the English Department Staff Seminar series at Hong Kong Baptist University. This followed the writer's participation in the Third Hong Kong International Literary Festival of 2004, as one of "Five New Scorchers". The essay continues the discussion of writing in Hong Kong, found in For the Record and other Poems of Hong Kong. 作者:Gillian Bickley 出版:Proverse Hong Kong 出版日期:01/12/2005
