A thankless task?

Whether in the literary or scholarly world, or both, it often seems that reviewing is a thankless form of labour. So I’d like to thank both Russell Brickey and Astrid Møller-Olsen for their recent reviews of, respectively, Make It the Same and “Translatability and Transmediality: Chinese Poetry in/and the World,” a special issue of Prism in which I had a small role. What I particularly loved about Møller-Olsen’s review is that she seemed to have got something out of the task: “I opened the volume to feed my increasing interest in literary translation and came out more curious than ever and with a new craving for poetry.” Another poetry convert!
