Reviews Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge Empathy Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge Rosmarie Waldrop A dialogue of an extremely fine-tuned intelligence with the "world." We start out dazzled by the sheer beauty of the perceptions, the subtle music, the surprising shifts into complex inference and meditation. We end up "flattened against our seats" gasping for breath as the poem takes off into unsuspected altitudes-or depths. Empathy is not just a fine book. It is an event. An important event. Barbara Guest Empathy with its perilous line leads into unruled space of porcelain and the mystery tusk. The narrative structure suspended, a stilt upon the poem, wears the sheen of thoughtful surfaces and the rouge of elemental surprise. Charles Bernstein In Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge's Empathy , "the human hovers like a mood" that refuses definition. In the flickering mirrors of distant landscapes, perception melts, like ice detailed equivocations, and the scenes and lights they evoke, have become" spiritual exercises in physical form." "Even the slightest movement" shimmers. Jackson Mac Low Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge's poetry moves from "inner" phenomena to ones coming from the "external" world and back again with breathtaking evenness. Calmly and convincingly she leads our attention from confidence of passion or attention itself to ice crystals, gulls, fireworks, or apple trees and to very specific qualities of perception, especially vision-most notably, those associated with the properties of light-fogginess, brightness, colors (what a poet of light she is!) in poetry that always speaks equally about "the world" and "herself." She is neither" objectivist" nor subjectivist" but a poet of the whole consciousness. A virtuoso of the long line, hers unlike those of most other poets are startlingly non-rhapsodic, although they are more truly emotional than those of most rhapsodists. I've known and loved Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge's poetry for years. It gets better all the time.

Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge was born in Beijing of Chinese and Dutch-American parents and grew up in the United States. Once an associate of Georgia O'Keefe, she is active in both Native and Asian American cultural movements from her home in Providence. Her previous books include Hiddenness (Whitney Museum), The Heat Bird (Burning Deck Press), Random Possession (Ishmael Reed Books), Summits Move with the Tide (Greenfield Review Press), and Fish Souls (Greenwood Press). Empathy Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge What can one person know of another? These poems act as energy fields of images from science, philosophy, and romantic love. They evoke the spaces of the New Mexican desert, the Alaskan tundra, her Chinese home, and the interior self in relationships, as the poet makes empathy a metaphor for the space of one person inside another. The lines of verse are long, sensuous, and prose-like, following the open horizons of the West. Cover Price Pages Dimensions ISBN Publisher Paper 7 x 7 Station Hill Press, Inc.

Kate's Talk A Talk presented by Mei-mei Berssenbrugge at The Poetry Project, St. Mark's on the Bowery, October, 1987 This talk is trying to be an example of the moment when knowledge in the body starts to cross over into knowledge that you can say. I will try to elucidate the feeling of tunings of the richness of the events in your experience, as degrees of meaning of your experiences. I am going to try and do this by creating a patchwork or collages out of words to imitate the experiential patchwork, the patchwork of our senses, and the meaning we attach to those patches, which I will call a feeling of meaning, or in daily life I want to call it a feeling of richness. It interests me, to make this patchwork two dimensional and opaque, although it probably isn't. Because I want to use the opaqueness as a richness of saturation or density in our experience of a moment or of an event. Whereas the time in which we experience is really more like a layered sound. Is it how close you are to being a creature that enables you to experience with sensuality

events new writing book reviews author biographies ... links Traffic reviews 2003-04 Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge Nest Berkeley, CA: Kelsey St Press, 2003 Settle yourself into a place of silence, of darkness and, for the subject of your meditation, bring along Mei-mei Berssenbrugge's newest book, Nest. Are you comfortable, secure, in an accustomed place of contemplation? Look a little closer. What used to be familiar is becoming alien, menacing. The things you trust the most, take for granted, accept as constant, are becoming strange; they are no longer inviolate. Once again, as I so often do, I find myself lulled along by the long, slow sentences of Berssenbrugge's work and the painterly quality of the images, until I stop, hung up on the connections and spaces between syntax, language, and abstraction. The lullaby has turned to inquisition and defiance. As suggested by the title, Nest, Berssenbrugge's newest book from Kelsey St. is a reflection on domesticity and family. The poems trace the relationships between siblings, mother and child particularly in terms of separation and generations. The poems go beyond these frequently (and in this case, penetrating rather than overdone) explored themes to also touch on the family unit's ability to relate to the outside world. From "Erring": Look at my family, so wrong in how they're laid out, no ethos of being together, like cards from a disoriented gambler, calling for play.
