If I Do Not Reply is the first UK collection by Hong Kong poet Tammy Lai-Ming Ho, and brings us a welcome new voice to speak of matters in a place too often seen through expatriate, rather than native eyes. Hong Kong may once have been a borrowed place, on borrowed time, situated physically in one world, and mentally somewhere between two, but its current uncomfortable position finds an apt chronicler here.
