Sinopsis

Stand-up comedy, a celebrity non-apology, observations of racism, and the slipperiness of nostalgia underpin Replica. In poignant, witty poems, Lisa Low navigates the tensions of solidarity and hostility in white spaces as she sets out to write differently about race.

"The problem of being with a white man is also a problem of writing," Low says in a prose poem that turns writing about identity on its head. She peers in from outside the poem, as if through an open ceiling. The poem itself becomes a site of investigation―a counterpoint to constricting narratives about Asian American identity―reimagined as a dollhouse, a stage with props, an image the speaker wears like a bodysuit. Replica asks what it means to represent yourself and your experiences in a world where you are indistinguishable from others.

“Under a red-and-white bull’s eye,
I could be anywhere in America. Like
freshman year of college in Houston, away
 
from home for the first time, I missed
everything I knew and went to Target.”
—Excerpt from “At Target in Bloomington”
