Drawing inspirations from a vast oeuvre of more than a thousand poems, Eliot Weinberger has deftly composed a montage of fifty-eight poems derived and adapted from the lines, images, and feelings in Tu Fu's poetry. These poems weave a tapestry of Tu Fu's turbulent life and times of war and disaster.
In the post-pandemic era, we may appreciate the profound solitude and desolation in Tu Fu's poetry that still resonates across the span of a millennium. More than an homage to the life of Tu Fu, this work is a meditation on the self, suffering, and our transient beings.
