A new collection from award-winning poet Marianne Chan.
A coming-of-age narrative, Leaving Biddle City details one Filipina American speaker¿s experience of growing up amid a white, Midwestern suburbia mythologized as ¿Biddle City.¿ Through prose poems, pantoums, ballads, flattened haikus, and thematic autobiographies, Chan maps a territory of intergenerational conflict, racial alienation, and memory and forgetfulness. What¿s achieved is a work of playfulness and meticulous beauty, a collection that reframes how we may understand ourselves, our histories, and the places where we are from.
