This review is from: Abiding Places, Korea North and South (Perfect Paperback)
Ko Un's Abiding Places is the perfect mix of history, poetry and philosophy. It examines the cultural reality of modern Korea, South and North, and its people; in Ko Un's ambiguous context, each location becomes a testament to the issues surrounding the truce line, and the world in general. This is especially excellent for those looking for insight into how modern Koreans feel about the division, and the corruption of one people, naturally and culturally similar, but ultimately, politically divided.
