Restoring Theresa Hak Kyung Chas original vision and intentions for Dictee, a foundational text of modern Asian American literature. Dictee is the best-known work of the multidisciplinary Korean American artist Theresa Hak Kyung Cha. This restored edition, produced in partnership with the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive (BAMPFA), reflects Chas original vision for the book as an art object in its authentic form, featuring: - The original cover - High-quality reproductions of the interior layout Dictee tells the story of several women: the Korean revolutionary Yu Guan Soon, Joan of Arc, Demeter and Persephone, Chas mother Hyung Soon Huo (a Korean born in Manchuria to first-generation Korean exiles), and Cha herself. This dynamic autobiography: - Structures the story in nine parts around the Greek Muses - Deploys a variety of texts, documents, images, and forms of address and inquiry - Links the womens stories to explore the trauma of dislocation and the fragmentation of memory it causes The result is an enduringly powerful, beautiful, unparalleled work.
