Born in 1966 in Rui’an, Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, Chi Lingyun is an increasingly important Chinese woman poet who began writing in 1985 and has worked as a teacher, journalist, and editor. Her poetry collections include Darting Snow (1997); Solitary Dialogue (2005); _Select_ed Poems (2010); and Muted Light (2013). Her work has been translated into German, English, Korean, Russian, and other languages. The 2010 recipient of October magazine’s Poetry Award, she has also presented her art at Kim Dal Jin Literature Festival in South Korea. The US literary journal Chinese Literature Today also featured and reviewed her work in 2014. She currently lives in Wenzhou.

Notable for its sudden yet tonally harmonic obliquities, Chi Lingyun's poetry joins her sense of nature as redemptive and instructive to a distinctly expressionist imagery. Distrustful of appearances, she is nonetheless finely attuned to their resonance, delving to deeper regions of mind and identity, especially where fusion with our surround engenders transcendence. In the heat of this exchange, the intensity of the present often melds with sharp or shadowed images from the buried past, releasing an elemental energy.
