"In Three Poets of Modern Korea, American poet James Kimbrell, and translator and native speaker Yu Jung-yul, have gathered and translated leading representatives of three generations of Korean poets. From the Dada and surrealist inflected work of Yi Sang, to the colloquial, affirming poems of Hahm Dongseon, and ending with the brilliant sensuality of Choi Young-mi, whose work asserts a determination to be both a woman and a free individual, Three Poets of Modern Korea is a superb introduction to the largely undiscovered treasures of contemporary Korean poetry. The translations by Kimbrell and Yu, many of which have appeared in premier American literary journals, manage to be faithful to the originals at the same time they take on true life and breath as fluent poems in English."--BOOK JACKET.
