Besiege Me
By Nicholas Wong
Six years after his landmark Lambda Literary Award win, Hong Kong poet Nicholas Wong returns with Besiege Me, a playful yet deeply piercing look at urban existences crushed by political and economic powers.
Confronting the timely tensions of his home city, this collection boldly outlines the vulnerability of entrapment and its quiet, masochistic pleasures. Through layers of transcultural poetics, Wong traces the complex boundaries of family, domestic life, and the profound resilience required to survive in a shifting landscape.
