Wu Ang (b. 1974) is a Chinese poet, writer, and journalist. She is perhaps best known for her association with the “Lower Body Poets,” a group of experimental poets active in Beijing in the late 90s/early 2000s, which believed in the intimate connection between poetic language and carnality and desire.
Cecily Chen is a writer and translator from Beijing, China. She is a PhD candidate at the University of Chicago, where she works on experimental Asian American poetics. She is also the poetry editor at Chicago Review.
Christian Schlegel is a poet born and raised in Pennsylvania. He has written two other books: HONEST JAMES (The Song Cave, 2015) and RYMAN (Ricochet, 2022). His poems and criticism have appeared in Lana Turner, the Kenyon Review Online, and the Cleveland Review of Books.
