Description 작품 소개

KIM Hye-Soon continues with her poetic experiments throughout every one of her poetry collections. This collection includes a single long poem in the form of series poetry entitled Okay Because I Am a Pig. In this piece, She replaces the desires and reality of people of all shapes and sizes at the bottom of society with polyphonic and complex roars of a pig. The aesthetic, political and critical ring of her poignant poem is rooted in her extreme imagination.

KIM Hye-Soon

Born in 1955, in Uljin, Gyeongsangbuk-do. KIM’s poetry played a critical role in the poetry of the 1980s, as well as in feminist literary research and publication. She continues to be one of the most important contemporary poets of South Korea. She has received numerous prestigious poetry awards and is the first woman to receive the coveted Midang literary award for her poem “Sand Woman”. This poem, which retraces the female life through a woman’s mummy, has also been included in the collection.
