Karen An-hwei Lee lives and teaches on the West Coast. Her chapbook of prose poems, God's One Hundred Promises, received the Swan Scythe Press Prize. A regular contributor to literary journals, she has completed several novellas and poetry collections. Her work has won numerous university awards, fellowships, and residencies, including a fellowship from the Yoshiko Uchida Foundation. She holds an M.F.A. in creative writing and a Ph.D. In literature.
"Lee's strange and gemological arrangements are the measure of her gift. . . .""-from the Foreword by Heather McHughIn the form of an eccentric dictionary, this debut brings to mind the long poems of Anne Carson. In compressed and oddly slanted "definitions," Lee's poems move through the alphabet in an attempt to limn the border between language and spirit. "In Medias Res" is an investigation into how God hides in language.
