Eddie Tay is the Reviews Editor of Cha and has previously contributed poetry ("Whose Woods These Are") and reviews to the journal. In the September 2010 issue, we are very delighted to have the opportunity to feature four poems from his third poetry collection, Mental Life of Cities, forthcoming in late 2010 or early 2011. You will like these poems: the play of light and memory in "Night Thoughts"; the merging of book, body, and longing in "White Pages"; the intense and vulnerable revelations of the persona in "Country"; and the haunting meditation on city life in "Cities".
