Korean poet Lee Sara presents her eighth poetry collection, titled 'Love More Loosely,' characterized by a shift from her traditionally restrained emotional style to an exploration of raw and vulnerable feelings. Throughout her work, Lee reflects on memory, loss, and the truths of life as she embraces her emotions at the verge of life's end. This collection provides a poignant expression of 'late style,' akin to Edward Said's concept, where artistic creation defies stability and ventures into emotional depth and complexity. The poems explore fragmentation and intersecting emotions, highlighting Lee's unique sense of poetic time and a tendency to candidly express love and sorrow without reservation.
