The Long Crossing

Drawing on both the lyrical traditions of Chinese poetry and the realities of contemporary experience, these poems reflect on journeys through cities and mountains, friendships and farewells, seasons and changing landscapes.

Here nature becomes a language of feeling, travel becomes a path of self-discovery, and everyday experience reveals unexpected depth. Flowers, rivers, roads, distant horizons, and passing conversations all become part of a larger meditation on time, belonging, loss, hope, and human connection.

Fu Bing’s voice is both intimate and expansive — rooted in personal observation, resonating with concerns shared across cultures and generations.

The Long Crossing reminds us that every life is a journey shaped by memory, transformed by experience, and illuminated by moments of unexpected beauty.
