Excellent- More about Decapitated Poetry
Ko-hua Chen's Decapitated Poetry is the first explicitly queer book of poems published in Taiwan, and it remains a foundational work in Taiwanese poetry. It includes erotic, satirical, and sci-fi sequences that offer further transcorporeal meditations on forbidden queer love.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 164 pages
Publication date: 06 June 2023
Publisher: Seagull Books London Ltd
Ko-hua Chen's Decapitated Poetry stands as a groundbreaking and seminal work in Taiwanese poetry, marking the inaugural publication of an explicitly queer collection of poems in the country. Released in 1995, this remarkable collection continues to elicit a profound response from readers, challenging their perceptions of homosexuality as a distinct category of existence. Chen's depictions of the multifaceted realities of queer eroticism are characterized by a formidable poetic intelligence that refuses to compromise. In addition to the erotic and satirical elements found in Decapitated Poetry, this volume also includes selections from Chen's exceptional sci-fi sequences, which offer further transcorporeal meditations on the forbidden love between queer individuals. Excoriating, heretical, tender, and always attuned to the transgressive power of language, this exhilarating volume from Seagulls Pride List serves as an ideal introduction to one of Taiwanese poetry's most daring and provocative voices.
