This book showcases the work of three major Korean poets born at
fourteen-year intervals, in 1921, 1935, and 1949. Each has tried to
renew Korean poetry by bringing it into closer contact with
everyday speech, social issues, and ordinary people's lives. Kim
Su-Young was a major pioneer, first developing as a Modernist but
then moving toward a poetry that addresses social issues and uses
ordinary language. Shin Kyong-Nim spent years living among the
simple working people of rural Korea. Today Lee Si-Young writes in
a similar spirit about the pain and dignity of humble lives. In
this bilingual volume, a wide selection of these three poets' most
significant work is made available in English for the first time.
