a record of my remnants

Katie Hulme

Poetry / collection / autobiographical

a record of my remnants is a collection of poetry spanning 2001-present day from U.S. poet Katie Hulme. The collection, in the words of Hulme, is a confession of catharsis, and an exploration of the lines between escapism and immersion, passion and addiction, joy and idolatry. a record of my remnants features Korean translations alongside the original English poems to pay tribute to the influences on Hulme’s creative and personal life and to uncover different, perhaps more raw and unadulterated sides to her works. a record of my remnants is a book to be savoured and returned to many times over, for Hulme’s deepest and most personal “thorns” run along universal currents. These personal, yet ever-universal remnants that grow and fade, much like the moon phases, are explored in a way that we can all find comfort and solace in.
