Description

Suji Kwock Kim's first collection of poems confronts difficult subjects such as colonialism, the Korean War, emigration, racism, and love. She explores what it means to be a daughter, sister, lover, citizen, or exile in a divided nation and self. In settings from New York to San Francisco, Scotland to Seoul, Kim's poems question the threads that hold our lives together in cities and gardens, battlefields and small towns. Her speakers encounter, quarrel with, or honor others, traveling between the living and the dead, between horror over past events and hope for the future. Drawing upon a wide range of voices, styles, and perspectives, Notes from the Divided Country bears witness to the vanishing world.
