A new volume of modern Korean poetry has just been published: Eyes of 
Dew: Poems by Chonggi Mah. Translated by Brother Anthony. Buffalo: White 
Pine Press. ISBN: 1893996794.

As the Amazon.com page says, "Chonggi Mah is an award-winning poet in 
Korea, his native country, but he has made a living as an MD and 
professor in the United States. Similar to William Carlos Williams, his 
work reflects his twin careers. Recently retired from teaching he now 
divides his time between Florida and Korea." In Korea, he is, of course, 
known as Ma Jong-gi.

The White Pine Press home page is not currently being updated, but the 
book can be obtained through the usual channels. It is part of White 
Pine's 'Korean Voices' series.
