Singing Like a Cricket, Hooting Like an Owl: Selected Poems of Yi Kyu-bo (Cornell East Asia Series)
Used Book in Good Condition
Kyu-bo Yi (1168–1241), the greatest of the classical Korean poets, was born into a very turbulent period of history, when the Koryo kingdom was threatened from the north by barbarians and from within by the ongoing struggle for supremacy among the various factions. His poems, confessional and transcendent, describe moments of personal illumination in the course of everyday life.
