Text in Korean.

"So Light to Be Left Only with Things to Leave Behind (Beorigo Gal Geonman Namaseo Cham Holgabunhada) is Park's posthumous collection of poems. It is the life story of the aged writer who firmly held onto her passion for literature to the last moment of her life. In the poem titled Han, Park says While the painful memories of the body are easily forgotten, / The wounds of the heart tend to grow worse. Moreover, these wounds of the heart are not hers alone; they are also shared by all those who fell victim to the ruling ideology that runs through modern Korean history. In this book, the reader will be able to recognize the benevolent author who has endured and overcome the hard times when beasts growled outside his door. " -- By Lee Seungwon
