AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Michele Leber's poetry has the immediacy and fluency of calligraphy as thought and the body articulates a vision of itself as both flesh and spirit - Jennifer Mackenzie

'The Yellow Emperor takes us into the world of ancient China, a world of history, myth and medicine which never loses its contemporary relevance. It is a book that will seldom be equaled for the uniqueness of its vision, the power of its imagination. - Ron Pretty

'With The Yellow Emperor, an erudite and dramatic collection of ventures and adventure, Michelle Leber makes poetry sing with medicinal effect. These poems come alive with startling new imagery and seemingly effortless mastery. - Yu Ouyang (Publication abstract)
