Clear My Name-Taiwan, Hong Kong, Ukraine - by C J Anderson-Wu (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Clear My Name-Taiwan, Hong Kong, Ukraine is a poetry collection of 57 pieces, some written in prose form, others more experimental in style.

In Clear My Name-Taiwan, Hong Kong, Ukraine, C. J. Anderson-Wu offers a stirring poetic testament to the resilience of identity amid the tremors of history. With a voice both lyrical and unflinching, she traverses the landscapes of three regions-each marked by conflict, memory, and the pursuit of self-definition. Her verses do not merely recount events; they illuminate the shadows cast by silence, giving form to stories often left untold.

This collection moves deftly between the intimate and the communal, revealing how the act of naming-of claiming one's truth-is itself a form of resistance. Anderson-Wu's poetry becomes a vessel for remembrance, a shield against erasure, and a call to recognize the dignity embedded in every struggle for voice and place.

To read these poems is to enter a space where borders blur and belonging deepens, where the personal becomes political, and where the reclamation of one's name becomes a reclamation of one's humanity.
