Sepasang suami-istri berangkat ke kota untuk mengunjungi anak-anak mereka yang telah dewasa. Sang suami bergegas naik ke gerbong kereta bawah tanah dan mengira istrinya mengikuti di belakangnya. Setelah melewati beberapa stasiun, barulah dia menyadari bahwa istrinya tak ada. Istrinya tertinggal di Stasiun Seoul. Perempuan yang hilang itu tak kunjung ditemukan, dan keluarga yang kehilangan ibu/istri/ipar itu mesti mengatasi trauma akibat kejadian tersebut. Satu per satu mereka teringat hal-hal di masa lampau yang kini membuat mereka tersadar betapa pentingnya peran sang ibu bagi mereka; dan betapa sedikitnya mereka mengenal sosok sang ibu selama ini, perasaan-perasaannya, harapan-harapannya, dan mimpi-mimpinya.   Source: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12594604-please-look-after-mom-ibu-tercinta

Anxiety of Words focuses on the work of three contemporary Korean women poets whose fierce poetic voices display a critical consciousness of women’s lives under patriarchy, capitalism, and neocolonialism. Each poet is represented, in bilingual format, by approximately twenty poems and a biographical introduction. The volume also contains a detailed introduction to the Korean poetry scene by translator Don Mee Choi, with a focus on the historical and contemporary role of women poets in Korea. The poetry of Ch’oe Sung-ja, Kim Hyesoon, and Yi Yon-ju consistently violates the literary expectations of gentle and subservient yoryu (female) poetry through innovative language and depictions of Korean women’s identities and struggles. https://www.abebooks.com/9780939010875/Anxiety-Words-Contemporary-Poetry-Korean-0939010879/plp

Without question, literature is the best place to start knowing and understanding one another. For isn't there a real fascinating connection between writers and place - where people come from and where they go? A very large part of a nation's writing is the story of its roots in a place and when Koreans come to our country, they bring with them the story of their roots in Korea.     Source: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9813879-reading-korea

KIM HYESOON / 김혜순 / 2008 / -

Poetry. Asian Studies. Translated from the Korean by Don Mee Choi. The first full-length English language edition of one of the foremost woman poets in Modern Korean poetry. Kim Hyesoon was the first woman recipient of the prestigious Kim Suyong Contemporary Poetry Award, and is the author of eight collections of poetry. In Kim Hyesoon's saturated political fables, horror is packed inside cuteness, cuteness inside horror. Interior and exterior, political and intimate, human and animal, agent and victim become interchangeable, interbreeding elements. No subjecthood is fixed in this microscape of shifts, swellings, tender subjugations and acts of cruel selflessness.   Source: http://www.amazon.com/Mommy-Must-Be-Fountain-Feathers/dp/0979975514

The stories in this collection are written by twelve Korean women writers whose experience, insight, and writing skill make them truly representative of Korean fiction at its best. "The Rooster" is a comical revelation of an old man who accepts the truth that Man and Nature revolve around the same immutable natural law. In "The Fragment," refugees who flee to Pusan during the Korean War suffer the unspeakable squalor and despair when jammed in a warehouse. "The Young Elm Tree" tells the story of a high school girl who falls in love with the son of her mother's new husband. What all these twelve writers share in common is a keen eye that penetrates into the lives of Korean women from the early part of the 20th century to the present. THE AUTHORS Authors included fall into two groups-those born during the Japanese occupation of Korea (1910-1945) and those born after 1945. All the eight authors in the first group experienced the Second World War in childhood and the Korean War as adults. They saw pain, hardship, and death, but they observed courage, resilience, humor, and love even in the most dire times. The four younger writers are active creators of works that have won top literary awards. Their fresh new look at life, their bold experimental style, and their refreshing voices are a reflection of their generation. THE TRANSLATOR Dr. Jin-Young Choi is Professor of English at Chung-Ang University in Seoul. She has translated two novels, numerous short stories and tales. Her Saturday columns in The Korea Herald were collected into one volume form One Woman's Way. All of her translated short stories were published in Korean Literature Today. https://www.amazon.com/Unspoken-Voices-Selected-Stories-Writers/dp/1931907064
