Infinity Diary

This volume of poems by Cyril Wong, one of the leading figures of poetry in Singapore, reflects the many ways in which love between two men can unfold, balancing emotional outpourings with meditations on the nature of relationships. The poetry punctures the sometimes oppressive reality of life in a city that is hypermodern yet far from free and, through twists and turns, ultimately lifts the reader to a place beyond pleasure and pain. Sensual, anecdotal and, of course, confessional, Infinity Diary charts an evolution in the work of one of Asia’s most intimate English-language poets.
 

Acest volum de poezii ale lui Cyril Wong, una dintre figurile principale ale poeziei din Singapore, reflecta numeroasele moduri in care se poate desfasura dragostea dintre doi barbati, echilibrand revarsarile emotionale cu meditatiile asupra naturii relatiilor. Poezia strapunge realitatea uneori apasatoare a vietii intr-un oras hipermodern, dar departe de a fi liber si, prin rasuciri, ridica in cele din urma cititorul intr-un loc dincolo de placere si durere.
