"Yin Xiaoyuan holds back nothing. Their poems are bulky, cinematic, suddenly despondent, pulling back and the poem ends. I applaud the richness of the work, its bravery, its quirkiness. I turn the pages for another vista and another reshuffling of what a poem is. I feel like a fledgling lover, abandoned, happy and surprised."-Eileen Myles
