Autobiography of Death Gap Gardening and stuttering repetitionKim Hyesoon (trans. Don Mee Choi) The title section of Kim Hyesoon's powerful book, Autobiography of Death, consists of forty nine poems, each poem representing a single day during which the spirit roams after death before it enters the cycle of reincarnation. The poems not only give voice to those who met unjust deaths during Korea's violent contemporary history, but also unveil what Kim calls "the structure of death, that we remain living in."
