Winshen Liu

April 9, 2024

Moonful (Poetry), Oxford, MS

Moonful is a poetry collection about everyday moments of longing and continued negotiations of home and family due to migration.

“I hope my poems inspire empathy and community. As other poets have done in writing about (re)building and finding home, I hope to make others feel seen and heard.”

Winshen Liu is a writer and educator from Illinois. Her poems have appeared in BRINK, Cincinnati Review, Gordon Square Review, The Malahat Review, Poetry Ireland Review, The Rumpus, and Southeast Review, among others. She was selected as a runner-up for the 2023 Lit Fest Emerging Writer Fellowship and shortlisted for the Alpine Fellowship in Poetry and Founders’ Prize for RHINO. Like many, she is grateful for poetry readers and is working on her first novel.
