"Their swimming postures are unique
Some foam at the mouth, some angle their feet to the sky
But they don't die
In the dauntlessly crashing waves"
-from Daughter W

Winner of the 2025 Newman Prize for Chinese Literature
"Ling Yü's language is economical and concise, yet surprising and reverberating with complex meaning... Through her works, readers encounter a prism of rich, elegantly employed references that span themes of meditation, travel, feminism, capitalism, the environment, mythology, and more." - Cosima Bruno, SOAS, London
