Linh Dinh's third book of poems, Borderless Bodies is a fierce yet playful investigation into the body as metaphor, with its various processes as allegories— "Where bones always nudge Against the fuzziest skin./ Where inside and outside Are confused and flushed"— from "Borders." The body as polity and politics as metaphor and subject at once— "One only misses one's bellybutton As one is hacked away from it"— making this perhaps Linh Dinh's most ambitious and accomplished book to date. His other collections are American Tatts: Revised And Expanded Edition and All Around What Empties Out.
