Poetry. "Pissed-off, stripped down, and deadly serious these poems spare no one."--Joan Larkin "Drop me off anywhere with Jiwon Choi--these wildly radiant poems of music & magic reel us in... this is a wondrous book."--Naomi Shihab Nye

Jiwon Choi doesn't hold back when it comes to the outer life we all deal with, or the inner life with its particular wrenchings and beauties.

Poetry. I USED TO BE KOREAN is Jiwon Choi's second full length poetry collection. Hanging Loose Press also published Choi's earlier poetry collection, ONE DAUGHTER IS WORTH TEN SONS.These sharp-tongued poems, often levitating on their own buoyant wit, are full of Jiwon Choi's delightful 'wickedness and dirty humor.' Her work is propelled by New York immigrant energy, which of course makes it quintessentially American.--Terence Winch
