01 Aug / Echoes Upon Echoes: New Korean American Writers edited by Elaine H. Kim and Laura Hyun Yi Kang [in AsianWeek]
A fabulous collection of prose and poetry from a new generation of Korean American authors. Grouped into three sets of pairings – arrival/return, dwelling/crossing, descent/flight, all with multiple layers of meaning – the voices within explore both familiar and unfamiliar territory, often with unexpected results.
