Between May 13 and May 21, 1992, four esteemed Chinese poets went on an American reading tour co-sponsored by the Academy of American Poets, The Asia Society, the Asian Art Museum, and many others. That tour is commemorated here in this large letterpress broadside designed and printed at Okeanos Press, Berkeley. The broadside features poems by each of the four poets: "Love Story" by Bei Dao; "Valley" by Yang Lian; "Rebel Camp in the Hindu Kush" by Gu Cheng; and "Saying Good-bye" by Duo Duo. Size: 17.5 inches tall by 11.2 inches wide.
