Poetry Month Event (interview Preparation)
星期二 三月 25, 2008 3:48 pm
James Deahl invited me to read my poems on Poetry Month event in Hamilton at Blue Angel gallery. It will be Sunday April 13. Since I never meet him in person and I hope to interview him, so I accepted his invitation and asked if we could do the interview too. Two years ago, I received James' email and he asked me to write a book review for his translation of Chinese poems. I wondered how he could translate Chinese traditional poems into English while he didn't know Chinese. After I read his book and in his preface, I found the answer. Here is my review on his book.

Now, since I plan to interview him, so I want to prepare a few questions about his translation and his opinion of chinese poems and western poems. I also need to get known him more, I find the following information. I post it here and hope anyone who is interested in it, also provide your questions, so I could make a list of questions for the interview. I will update it soon.
