I requested this book from my library because it was on the NBA Poetry longlist, and it ultimately won. It is certainly poetry, but it is also memoir, biography, photography, and experimental. It is a mish mash of the author's memories, interview, her father's memories and work, history, journalism, and imagination.
Over the last month I have accidentally been focusing on recent Korean/Korean-American/East Asian literature, by following author and audiobook narrators on Hoopla. I have listened to a variety of books focused on or including historical events in Korea WW2 to present: [book:The Last Story of Mina Lee|49374507], [book:If You Leave Me|34858106], [book:How We Disappeared|42550681], and [book:The Kinship of Secrets|37570619]. These books are all novels, and while reading them in such a short time allows me to build a stronger knowledge of Korean history I still question learning history from fiction. It was absolutely fascinating to find the presidents, countries, and events mentioned (with photos), in this book of poetry. ( )
