Publisher's Synopsis

Poetry. Asian & Asian American Studies. Edited by Yoon-Ho Cho and Stanley H. Barkan. POSTCARD FROM THE DESERT is a bilingual (Korean-English) collection of poetry by Sang-Hee Kwak, an immigrant to America in 1963. The poetry focuses on oriental thinking about nature and accounts of human tragedies, but with a hopeful attitude. Sang-Hee Kwak is a true poet. Her work deftly floats and penetrates both in English and Korean. She writes about everything, but her most works sharply employs nature as a departure points for something deeper and wider.--Paul Catafago

Sang-Hee Kwak cherishes a positive attitude, which contains human tragedies and alienation from the present era, with her unique creativity in her subtle transcendental contemplation based on the oriental thinking of nature and cognizance of native lyricism.--Jae Hong Kim
