In such lines as \"let me tell you how I make myself appear \/ more likeable,\" \"as I grow older I like looking at chaos,\" and \"I want to propose a hike \/ and also propose mostly,\" Wong's style is confident and idiomatic, and by turns contemplative and carefree. Whether writing about family, intimate relationships, language, or women's experience, Wong creates a world alive with observation and provocation, capturing the essence and the problems of life with others.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStella Wong\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of the poetry collection \u003ci\u003eSpooks\u003c\/i\u003e and the chapbook \u003ci\u003eAmerican Zero\u003c\/i\u003e.
