by Jeffrey Yang (Author)
From "Abalone" to "Zooxanthellae," Jeffrey Yang's debut poetry collection An Aquarium is full of the exhilarating colors and ominous forms of aquatic life. But deeper under the surface are his observations on war, environmental degradation, language, and history, as a father-troubled by violence and human mismanagement of the world-offers advice to a newborn son.
