“I loved Square so much I feel like I have to invent new superlatives. Liu’s extraordinary and innovative use of the prose poem is the most exciting thing I’ve read in a long time; a way of writing through and into the self, personal and national histories, love and frustration, disaster and revolution, the inner and outer life at once. So generous and shocking and funny and sad. I don’t think I’ll ever stop re-reading it.” —Luke Kennard, author of Notes on the Sonnets
