During China's Cultural Revolution, millions of middle school and high school graduates, called zhiqing, were sent to the countryside to receive reeducation from peasants. They dug the earth daily, with deep conviction that they would play an important role in the transformation of rural China. Jianqing Zheng's rusticated years were central to his poetic imagination in this collection.

Jianqing Zheng is author of The Landscape of Mind (Slapering Hol Press) and editor of African American Haiku: Cultural Visions (University Press of Mississippi). His poetry has appeared in Mississippi Review, Poetry East, Spillway, Tar River Poetry, and elsewhere. He lives and writes in the Mississippi Delta.
