Gillian Bickley’s second poetry collection of sixty-nine poems speaks of general subjects of daily life observed in a Hong Kong context, on regional and international people and events, on some family and human relationships.The essay on literary history and criticism has a Hong Kong focus and international application.Several special people appear in the poems: an itinerant knife sharpener, a fortune teller, a Hakka grandmother, academics at a conference….The old is contrasted with the new, fictional with actual life. Links are made between different cultures, different lives, different experiences. The expatriate life-style of constant movement runs parallel with the title of the book.
