This pocket-sized paperback is one of the twenty-four titles published for 2017 Hong Kong International Poetry Nights. The theme of IPHHK2017 is “Ancient Enmity”. IPNHK is one of the most influential international poetry events in Asia. From 22–26 November 2017, over 20 invited poets from various countries will be in Hong Kong to read their works based on the theme “Ancient Enmity.” Included in the anthology and box set, these unique works are presented with Chinese and English translations in bilingual or trilingual formats.

Jérôme Game , born in Paris in 1971, has been based in between Paris and New York City over the last few years. Since 2000 he has published over twenty books, several CDs (of sound-poetry), one DVD (of videopoems), and given numerous public performances of his work in France and abroad (Europe, North Africa, Asia, Americas). Translation, correspondence, appropriation: it is across various practices and disciplinary borders that his poetry recomposes, often in collaborations with visual artists, musicians, stage directors and choreographers. He has also published several essays on contemporary aesthetics and had his first exhibition in 2015 in Casablanca, Morocco. His poems have been translated into several languages (English, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Japanese) and later in 2017 Flip-Book & other image-poems, a collection of English translations, will come out with Barque Press in London.
