Middle Kingdom by Adrienne Su

As with any collection, I like Su's work because I connect with her subjects and her use of language. What stands out beyond that is her deep mastery of form; the structures and rhymes are so inherent that I was only aware of them afterwards, sometimes on a second reading. That's remarkable.
