Publishing Kim Hyesoon and International Poetry
2024.06.03
New Directions was founded in 1936 by the pioneering publisher James Laughlin when he was a student at Harvard. Laughlin conceived of New Directions as a way to introduce some of the most groundbreaking and experimental poets of the time (Ezra Pound, William Carlos Williams, Marianne Moore, Hilda Doolittle, Louis Zukofsky), aiming to publish writing that “made it new” in English and other languages. He also traveled widely, introducing fiction writers and poets from abroad. Laughlin built one of the great literary lists in American publishing, and ND continues to publish international literature, following in his path.
Autobiography of Death, Phantom Pain Wings
The response to both of Kim Hyesoon’s books in the bookselling world was wonderful. We sold rights for Phantom Pain Wings to the UK publisher And Other Stories. Both books received terrific reviews in magazines and newspapers like The New Yorker, The Kenyon Review, The New York Times, and The Washington Post. And ultimately, Kim Hyesoon’s sales were enviable for poetry. Her work has struck a chord for being able to convey emotions through a surreal language that more traditional poetic language cannot. Thanks to the financial support of LTI (Literature Translation Institute of Korea), we received a translation subsidy, and Kim Hyesoon was able to travel here for well-attended events in important poetry venues around the U.S. Since both Kim Hyesoon and her translator have a remarkable presence and read their poems beautifully, there was much enthusiasm, and the events generated even more interest for this important Korean writer.
