Year of the Sheep

Stacey S. Park

4.9/5 (29587 ratings)

Description:The poems in Stacey Park’s Year of the Sheep are immigrant songs. Using the poetic imagination as a space to represent the complexities of assimilation, cultural hybridity, and a religious upbringing, this collection explores the link between language, location, and self. The mix of natural imagery and pop culture references culminate in a nostalgic hum that yearns for home, wherever and whatever that might be. In Korean, it is common to use a collective pronoun like “our'' and “we,” when referencing something that is exclusively one’s own. This sense of “our'' reinforces the notion that an individual is always part of the collective. From all sides, the speaker is bombarded with ways of belonging—the fear of being left by the herd haunts them. Park offers a speaker who questions the predetermined paths and pervasive narratives that try to dictate the major actions and events of a good immigrant life. They seek a way to honor the “we” while forging an “I” on their own terms.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
