Description

This selection of Kim Seung-hee's most recent
poems is drawn half from her ninth collection, Hope is Lonely, and half from her tenth collection, Croaker on a Chopping Board. Focusing on
humanity's utter fragility through, among others, the themes of death, hope,
depression and love, often seen through the lens of sorrowful womanhood, these
poems, be they modernist or romantic in idiom, also comment on political and
social issues, and Korean society and culture in general. Brother Anthony's deeply
sensitive translation, and his informative preface, make the work of this major
Korean poet available for the first time in the UK.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
