Tango, Tangoing: Poems & Art


While the ostensible subject here is dance, Mong-Lan is brilliant at  
suggesting layered, ever-shifting perspectives, meanings, and  
voices.  These complex poems are, at times, aesthetic mediations,  
dissections of human relationships, internal monologues, and  
political inquiry. That Mong-Lan succeeds at such an ambitious  
project in writing that is visually striking, musically complex,  
unabashedly erotic and deeply intelligent, is testimony to her very  
great poetic talents.  This is a marvelous book, one I’ll return to  
again and again. --Kevin Prufer
