Title
The Same-Different: Poems - Paperback
by Hannah Sanghee Park (Author)
Deceptively straightforward and subtly pyrotechnic, the poems in Hannah Sanghee Park's debut collection captivate with their wordplay at first glance, then give rise to opportunities for extended reflection. "If / truth be told, I can't be true," she writes, but her startling juxtapositions of sound and meaning belie that claim, necessitating a search for the truth behind her semantic games.
Here are dozens of brief sentences that can serve as epigrams to undermine our ordinary ways of seeing, as Park's playfully deployed puns recall the sly paradoxes of Oscar Wilde. The Same-Different ranges from the wonders of the natural world to close human relationships, occasioning the kind of explorations offered in "And A Lie" "The asking was askance. / And the tell all told. / So then, in tandem // Anathema, and anthem."Author Biography
HANNAH SANGHEE PARK earned an MFA from the Iowa Writers' Workshop. She has received fellowships and honors from the Fulbright Program, the Poetry Foundation, the MacDowell Colony, and others. She lives and works in Los Angeles, where she was a fellow in the CBS Writing Program.
