Introducing 'Joss: A History', the latest compelling work by Grace Yee, who masterfully follows her award-winning poetry collection, 'Chinese Fish'. This groundbreaking poetry book, published by Giramondo Publishing in 2025, dives deep into the historical narratives of Chinese immigrants in Australia and New Zealand. With an ISBN of 9781923106314, 'Joss' explores the poignant stories of over a thousand 'chinamen' interred in the White Hills Cemetery in Bendigo, many in unmarked graves. These men, hailing from the Canton region of southern China, were sojourners, whose untold struggles and triumphs resonate throughout the centuries. Through deeply reflective poetry, Yee pays homage to her ancestors and sheds light on the contributions of Chinese communities in white settler nations along the Pacific Rim, particularly following the gold rushes of the 19th century. 'Joss: A History' reframes these narratives with a contemporary lens, illustrating how history is alive and influences our present. Perfect for those interested in Chinese immigrant history, contemporary poetry, and the intersection of culture and identity, this collection is a must-have for poetry enthusiasts and those seeking to understand the rich tapestry of Chinese heritage in the Pacific. Dive into 'Joss' today and connect with a history that continues to shape identities and stories in today’s world.
