In poignant, witty poems, Lisa Low navigates the tensions of solidarity and hostility in white spaces as she sets out to write differently about race.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The problem of being with a white man is also a problem of writing,\" Low says in a prose poem that turns writing about identity on its head. She peers in from outside the poem, as if through an open ceiling. The poem itself becomes a site of investigation--a counterpoint to constricting narratives about Asian American identity--reimagined as a dollhouse, a stage with props, an image the speaker wears like a bodysuit. \u003ci\u003eReplica \u003c\/i\u003easks what it means to represent yourself and your experiences in a world where you are indistinguishable from others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLisa Low is the author of \u003ci\u003eCrown for the Girl Inside\u003c\/i\u003e, winner of the Vinyl 45 Chapbook Contest from YesYes Books.
