About This Book
Shin Kyong-rim stands tall among Korea's modern poets. One of the most
influential poets in the realm of grassroots realism, he has immersed
himself in the world of the working class and farmers ¯ Shin himself was
a farmer. In the early 1970s when the country was under authoritarian
rule, his first collection "Nongmu" (Farmers' Dance) had a profound
impact on Korean literature.
At the age of 74, he now unveils a collection of autobiographical
essays. In this book spruced up with some drawings, he recalls his
childhood and relations he constructed with other poets and novelists.
Full of wit and hearty episodes, the book allows readers to have a rare
peek into the relationships he shared with many literary figures,
including the late novelist Lee Moon-koo. Just like the title of the
book, Lee must have been one of the friends that made the author happy
by just being together in the "good old days."
