Connecting world history, development economics, and political theory with a lyrical style, Gewirtz has written an exceptionally wide-ranging book for a new generation.”—Chang Che, The New Republic • “Vivid and readable… Exceptionally well-researched.”―Andrew Nathan, Foreign Affairs • “Excellent… A fascinating, authoritative account of the paths for China’s future explored during a decade long buried by official, state-sponsored history.”―Julia Lovell, Foreign Policy • “Richly researched… enhanced by access to internal Chinese documents and interviews with former officials and intellectuals active at the time.”―The Economist • “Gewirtz looks at the road not taken―and a tantalizing glimpse, perhaps, at the political possibilities that remain still.”―Emily Feng, NPR https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54ce8459e4b078980c13d52b/55d55029-e044-42c4-98ff-529fd00c09f7/Your+Face+My+Flag+Cover.jpeg Home - Your Face My Flag: Poems Amazon | IndieBound • “Julian Gewirtz’s exquisite debut collection [renders] desire and self-determination…imagining the inner lives of people that the authorities would erase. His poems on western culture make an aesthetic of indirection—a Vermeer’s interiority (‘that world outside where she isn’t’), a bog body’s ‘mute deserted face’—integral to his style of erudite disquiet. The effect is austere but beautifully illuminating.”—David Woo, Harriet Books, Poetry Foundation • “These poems revitalize an aspect of lyric poetry easily lost sight of—not that a poem must include history, but that a poem occurs within history and against it, too... The hope here isn’t to resolve or absolve us of our human complexity, but the ethic is better: to keep it open.”—Dan Beachy-Quick, Colorado Review • “In a collection that’s vividly detailed and layered, Gewirtz proves to be a wonderful storyteller.”—Library Journal http://www.juliangewirtz.com/contact daily 0.75 2025-04-09
