Description 작품 소개

This collection of Oh Sae-young’s poems was published in 2011. Introducing 52 of his poems, the collection is divided into four parts: “Footprints in Snow,” “The Brand of Life,” “Late Autumn,” and “Aha!” In his work, the poet criticizes contemporary poems for becoming abstruse. In language that is as clear as the lines on a checkerboard, Oh expresses humanity, nature, and everyday life. The English translation of this collection was selected by an American journal of reviews, the Chicago Review of Books, as one of the twelve best poetry collections of 2016 in the United States.
