American Poetry in a Korean World: 한국 세계 속의 미국 시 - Paperback

by Dj Reed (Author), Hyo Jin Kim (Translator), Dj Reed (Translator)

'American Poetry in a Korean World' is a poetry collection intended to attempt to bridge the language 'gap' between English and Korean. As a Korean language learner and someone who has made several good long distance friendships and acquaintances with Koreans - and others of different nationalities - I wanted to take the poetic inspiration that I received from my friends and repay it. This repayment came in the form of translating my poems into Korean so that both Korean language learners and English language learners could share and potentially learn from the same book together - with feeling and meaning.
