### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    What a poetic force
  

*by R***S on Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2018*

Xie begins her first full length collection exactly where she needs to – the speaker immersed in a foreign land with a mouth that “spends the only foreign words it knows.” Apropos, because Xie’s poetry is astoundingly spare. This is not to say that it is faux-deep or falsely wise. Xie takes us through gut-punch imagery like pigs riding on the backs of motorcycles or street dogs pink with mange. And then the unfortunate brilliance of the truism, “Love’s laws are simple. The leaving take the lead./The left-for take a knife to the knots of narrative.” These poems are chiseled down wonders that cut right to the core of the matter, both when you want them to and when you don’t. Xie is a major voice we should be thankful to have.

    Captivating Exploration of Solitude and Wanderlust
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2024*

Jenny Xie's Eye Level is a journey through landscapes both physical and emotional, where each poem unfolds like a vivid snapshot of cities and selves in flux. Xie's ability to merge the external world with inner contemplation is masterful, offering a poignant exploration of identity and belonging amidst the transient allure of travel. Her precise language and evocative imagery make this collection a must-read for anyone seeking poetry that resonates long after the pages are turned.

    Short-form reflections from an evocative  eye
  

*by M***I on Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2019*

This succinct collection of unassuming studies in solitude is threaded with an eye motif and observed by a traveler straddling eastern and western cultures. It looks outward, inward, and at looking itself to understand place and purpose. There are poems within poems; often a scene is set that culminates in a haiku or similar form. Direct and poignant in what isn't said. Would highly recommend.I read the Kindle version (on my 7th generation Paperwhite), which instructs you to adjust device settings so that all of a provided text fits on one line in order to best match the author's intent. However, even at the smallest font size, this text does not fit on one line no matter the font. This oversight did not affect my enjoyment of the poems, but there were obviously cases where lines overflowed, particularly onto the next page. If you're torn between print and digital versions (and I almost always recommend digital to avoid physical clutter), this might be a case where print is more desirable.
