Abstract
Miriam Wei Wei Lo's Against Certain Capture is a welcomed addition to Australia's Chinese diasporic poetry scene and an important contribution to the Australian-Asian dialogue regarding multiculturality. The book demonstrates the intricate characteristics of Eva and Yue Xian (Lo's maternal and paternal grandmothers, respectively). Through the lens of an earnest grandchild, the poet creates a vivid picture of the historical context regarding her grandmothers' youth and journeys.
