Stone Bow Prayer

<p>Amy Uyematsu is an award-winning poet who by day switches from right to left brain to teach algebra and geometry in public high school. The result of her poetry-math life is a fascinating far-flung but surprisingly connected book that interlinks mathematics poetry politics and spirit. <i>Stone Bow Prayer</i> is a remarkable journey in which—as one poem suggests—“Geometry Gets Mixed Up with God and the Alphabet” and the infinite and minute nurture one another.</p><p><b>Amy Uyematsu</b> is a sansei (third-generation Japanese American) author of two books of poetry and the recipient of the prestigious Nicholas Roerich Poetry Prize. She co-edited <i>Roots: An Asian American Reader</i> one of the first anthologies in Asian American studies. She lives near Los Angeles.</p>
