This artist’s edition of Han Bo’s 《中东铁路》, translated and annotated by David Perry as The China Eastern Railway, casts Han Bo’s nine-part cycle of poems as a fold-out map. A poem cycle that engages with northeastern China’s complex history, geography, ecology and culture, The China Eastern Railway unfolds in this artist’s book as physical manifestation of the poetry’s dense, playful and nuanced engagement with its subject.
