Concealed Words Summary

Concealed Words by Sin Mok

A debut English-language collection of hopeful and carefully attentive poems by one of South Koreas most lauded young poets.

This collection offers a selection of poems from Sin Yong Moks earlier collections, intended to serve as an illustration of his evolution as a poet, alongside a complete translation of the poems from his fourth collection, When Someone Called Someone, I Looked Back. Beautifully translated by Brother Anthony of Taize with close attention to the sonorous aspects of Sins lines, this collection also captures the larger themes within Sins work and his attention to the spirit of community and peaceful coexistence with others. These are poems with a powerful belief in humanity and the beauty of the smallest hopes.
