Luke (korrick) | 2004 comments Spring Essence: The Poetry of Ho Xuan Huong, Ho Xuan Huong, translated from Vietnamese by John Balaban, 2000, Vietnam, POETRY

"In her willingness to speak of her pain and her bitterness, Huong shows she's not cowed. Rather her emotionality is a sign of [...] that defiance that makes her such an irresistible subject of folk legend."
