Publisher's Synopsis
Poetry. Asian & Asian American Studies. Translated by Enhwa Choe, Kyung-Nyun Kim Richrds, Rachel S. Rhee, Robert Chung, and Soo Kyung Kim. This volume purports to contribute to the globalization of Korean literature. Although Korean literature has a long history, it is not known in the world. There may be many reasons why this is so, but more than anything the greatest cause might be the language barrier and translations. The publication of this book received enthusiastic responses from Korean, Korean-American, American, and international poets, as well as from readers the world over. --Yoon-Ho Cho
