People Person
About this book
Shortlisted for the Mary and Peter Biggs Award for Poetry in the 2023 Ockham NZ Book Awards People Person is a debut collection by Joanna Cho. These adventurous, funny and dissonant poems are about the endless work of fitting in when the goalposts are constantly changing. They ask: how can we nail the perfect routine? How can we be a people person in the world? What parts of ourselves must we leave behind? Moving between South Korea and New Zealand, Joanna Cho' s poems range excitingly in form, drawing upon and cleverly subverting the folktale, the phone conversation and the basketball game. At the heart of this book is a mother โ a generous, artistic woman who has limited choices in life, in comparison with our narrator, who is almost paralysed by choice โ and the deep, almost haunting comfort she brings.
