Description

Poet Kim Namju, who called himself a warrior. He is a hot symbol of the history of Korean literature and democracy in which he was born in prison of 360 of the 510 poems he left in his lifetime, while he was sentenced to close to 10 years in the ‘Neam Civil War’ account, recorded as the greatest public incident in the past year. The war on the Republic of China, which has given him a life of such fate, is to bring back to life the soul he cast into the flames and make it come back to meaning. The author, Kim Ch’an-sook, is a poet and novelist who reveals what was the mental circle that sustained Kim and her son through time from his hometown of Hae Nam to the town of student movement in Seoul. The first anti-miscanic underground newspaper "Sun" and the secret poetry of the prison, which was pressed on milk bags and silver rings, and then sent to the prison shrine, also clearly reveal the pure soul of Kim Nammist who wanted to dedicate himself to the nation and people instead of to his own safety.

This is a good book to read in May. I can look back at the pain of the times and think again about how to live.
