Indeterminate Inflorescence by Lee Seong-Bok

---

The format of the book - short numbered, paragraphs or a couple of lines - is a nice concept and works well when the quotes are good. I found only about 10% of the quotes to be good. Especially toward the end, they were not good and even contradicted themselves. They were the best when describing how to write poetry. Those were really good. Unfortunately, the bulk of the book was the poet’s opinions on life.
