Description

A collection of poems that blesses the reader with a spirit of hope, solace, and inspiration in their own seasons of adversity. The Beautiful Immunity asks how we create good in an imperfect world of fallible souls. Spare and formally daring, these poems were refined through the catastrophes of wildfires, recession, and a major public health crisis through the hope of a beautiful immunity—an everlasting salve for the lost. This slender volume reads as the culmination of more than a decade's worth of labor, documenting large-scale social, cultural, and political upheavals, as well as the moment when the word "anthropause" floated indelibly into the world's vocabulary.

Author Biography:

Karen An-hwei Lee is the author of Duress, Rose is a Verb: Neo-Georgics, In Medias Res (winner of the Norma Farber First Book Award), and Phyla of Joy and Ardor, both also published by Tupelo Press. She authored two novels, Sonata in K and The Maze of Transparencies. Lee’s translations of Li Qingzhao’s writing, Doubled Radiance: Poetry & Prose of Li Qingzhao, comprise the first volume in English to collect Li’s work in both genres. Her book of literary criticism, Anglophone Literatures in the Asian Diaspora: Literary Transnationalism and Translingual Migrations, was selected for the Cambria Sinophone World Series. Lee currently lives in greater Chicago.
