About the book
*Broken Mirrors*, in this first full-length collection of poetry, Yoon Sik Kim forges the poetic traditions of the East and the West in strictly Poundian sense, his mentor. A hard, precise, imagistic luminosity dominates his poetry. For example, following Li Po's light-foot and nature-treading tradition, his passion for lyrics is undeniable through the pages although his poems stray occasionally into societal issues, which have little to do with the Taoistic aesthetics of lyricism. Such digression is unavoidable given that he endures a life of an exile in a foreign country, trying to wring the core of human existence with this cumbersome language called English. But his gems sparkle, hidden in the rut.
