Theresa Mannschatz Book order

Presents the story of several women: the Korean revolutionary Yu Guan Soon, Joan of Arc, Demeter and Persephone, the author's mother Hyung Soon Huo (a Korean born in Manchuria to first-generation Korean exiles), and the author herself. This book shows that the elements that unite these women are suffering and the transcendence of suffering.

Features a selection of the author's uncollected and unpublished work that includes her writings and text-based pieces with images spanning the period between 1976 and 1980. This title contains two related poem sequences, the texts incorporating autobiographical elements as well as themes of language, memory, displacement, and alienation.
