BOOKS | yiwooae

Be ready to change your mind. Never before has an author like 이우애, come along in this century. Even though her poetry is easy to understand, nothing is lost when it comes to the deepness of her message. It is time to banish the myth that great poets are dead, white males. This is the year to change your thinking by getting new perspectives.

이우애's books cover the spectrum of human emotions. If you feel bad, read her angry and sad poems. If you feel good, read her spiritual and uplifting poems. Either way you will feel better, either by finding someone who can relate to your pain or by feeling connected with the world. Even though "Woo" stands for "rain," "Ae" stands for "love." The books in Woo Ae's collection are part of a greater movement toward love and peace. Those who understand the messages 이우애 conveys will be the new leaders of the love revolution.

이우애, a Washingtonian from the District of Columbia, wrote What Is This, Art Exhibitionistella at the end of 2010. Some of these poems will have similar themes to the prose she has written before, but with more freshness, variety, and conciseness. When she writes of toxic relationships, she does so in a way that makes her poetry powerfully potent. Most of these "poems" are intended to be lyrics and often have repeated choruses and indications of note or note length. In her early works, she shied away from rhyming schemes, preferring free verse. However, in this book, she embraces the power of rhyme, full rhyme and slant rhyme to make her words come to life.

Most of this book is meant to be sung (Lyrics). The last section of this book is meant to be spoken (Verses). Some lyrics have choruses. Some have indications for if a sound should be high or low. For those who are musically inclined, some even have indications of notes. These lyrics and verses may not always rhyme, but if you add music and imagination, you will find that there may be many interpretations of the written word. I have always found reader response to be more interesting than author response because when the author responds it is definitive.

Love, Not Love is 이우애’s first book. Poems in this volume are separated into two categories: what is love and what is not love. Ai had the idea for this book because she had recently broken up with someone she thought she was going to live her life with. The realization that she was not in love was a huge disappointment to her since they had been together for several years. Soon after, she fell in love again, but wanted to make sure that what they had was true so that she would not be setting herself up for disappointment. She spent a lot of time talking with friends, family, and acquaintances about the definition of love.
