From his earliest work, Bei Dao developed a wholly original poetic language composed of mysterious and arresting images tuned to a distinctive musical key. This collection spans Bei Dao's entire writing life, from his first book to appear in English, The August Sleepwalker, published a year after the Tiananmen tragedy, to the increasingly interior and complex poems of \u003cem\u003eLandscape Over Zero\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eUnlock\u003c\/em\u003e, to new never-before-published work.
