Kundiman fellow and poet Chen Chen wrote four poems for Winter Tangerine, as well as a statement about the mentorship and guidance he's received from our co-founder Joseph O. Legaspi.

"Much of what I remember from my conversation with Joseph is my pure giddiness. Is this what it feels like, when you no longer have to explain the basic fact of your existence? Is this what it’s like, no longer being a unicorn? Or being a unicorn among other fabulous unicorns?"
