Special Order - chogwa issue 10: doubling
This is a special listing for three physical copies of chogwa issue 10.
The tenth issue is a bilingual anthology of essays from chogwa contributors and readers.
An excerpt from Soje’s essay “Making chogwa: Past, Present, Future”
“For our events, I invite the poet, who most likely doesn’t speak English, and ask everyone to speak Korean. Korean poets have been curious about what exactly was being written about their poems, and I always wanted to give them the full chogwa experience, too.
Naturally, a bilingual issue was in order. The second anniversary, issue 10, seemed the perfect occasion to undertake such an endeavor. For this anthology of essays, I invited returning contributors, poets who’ve attended our events, and even readers to write about their various experiences with chogwa. This issue contains reviews of specific issues and events, personal essays/origin stories, and roundtable discussions on the politics of literary translation . . . times two!”
