What the Fortune Teller Didn't Say
- Author: Shirley Geok-Lin Lim
Written over the last decade, these poems include memories of the authors early childhood in Malaysia, immigration to America, and travel throughout the world, and affirmations of motherhood and maturity in the New World. From her background as a Malaysian Chinese later assimilated into Western culture, she has emerged with her own voice, combining bittersweet laughter and realistic affirmation. This unique voice establishes her as an important poet.
