Radio Days

En savoir plus sur le livre

A collection of poems that gives new life and magic to the everyday. Radio Days offers a unique collection by Ha Jaeyoun that presents a distinct, clear style that distinguishes it from her previous works in English. Although her poems range widely in topic, they are united by themes and lucid language and imagery. The book creates vivid impressions of humid childhood summers and the heartbreak of being alive and growing up through repeated references to The Beatles, counting the passing of time with Sundays, and noticing clouds. Together, the poems create a whimsical, quietly unsettling, and nostalgic universe that can is easily entered through its straightforward language, though it refuses to make obvious statements on loss and love.
