This book brings together the works of Chinese poets and writers from around the world. Through poetry, it responds to life and holds emotion, collectively mapping the emotional landscape of the contemporary Chinese experience-allowing language to become a vessel for the heart and soul. As an annual poetry selection, the anthology is published in separate Chinese and English editions, seeking to introduce Chinese poetry to a wider global audience, where it can be seen, understood, and meaningfully responded to. 本书汇聚世界华人诗人作家的创作，以诗歌回应生活、安放情感，共同描绘当代华人世界的情感地图，让语言成为承载心灵的载体。作为年度诗歌选本，本年选以中文与英文两个版本独立出版，致力于推动华语诗歌走向更广阔的世界--被看见、被理解，也被真诚地回应。 --张卫国 (Weiguo Zhang) 多伦多大学社会学系教授 Professor, Department of Sociology, University of Toronto

Our annual anthology is not merely a record, but an active attempt to engage in the dialogue and shaping of world poetry. Wherever we may be, we respond to the world through the language of poetry. This volume seeks to document the current landscape of global Chinese-language poetry, bringing together and presenting the complexity and creative vitality of contemporary Chinese-language writing. What it aims to establish are the annual rings and historical markers of poetic literature: it is not only a collection of poems, but an evolving "literary archive of its time." 我们的年选不仅是记录，更是尝试参与世界诗歌的对话与建构。 无论身在何处，我们都在用诗语言回应世界。这本年选试图记录全球华 人诗歌现况，汇聚和呈现当代华人写作的复杂性与创造力。它希望建立的，是诗歌文学年轮与历史标记：这不仅是一本诗集，也是一份正在生 成的"时代的文学档案"。 --主编 Editor-in-Chief 心漫 (Cathy Xinman)
