<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Described by Bob Holman as Li Po in drag, the voice of New America, Koon Woon exploded onto the poetry scene in the late 1990s. Largely self-taught, and struggling with both mental illness and homelessness, Seattle-based Woon wrote about the back alleys and tenement rooms on the margins of immigrant culture. His first collection, <i>The Truth in Rented Rooms </i>(included in this volume), won a PEN poetry prize and earned praise from Lawrence Ferlinghetti and Garrison Keillor. <i>Water Chasing Water</i> is Woon's second collection, and continues his exploration of loneliness and memory with poems and essays that seek out This light / Without which existence is not detectable.
