The first time I heard Chiwan Choi read, I was unprepared for the intensity of his voice and the energy of his lines. His latest work showcases an intensified power, delivering poetry that is both casually devastating and ecstatic. Choi writes, “I have replaced god / with longing,” transforming the legacy of war and displacement into a personal spiritual realm. Even amidst destruction, he captures the essence of connection, offering poetry as a means of preservation and a testament to a self that is continually redefined. This collection shines with a golden light, embodying both joy and sorrow. The Yellow House unfolds like a story collection while resonating with the rhythm of an R&B love song, filled with yearning. It evokes memories that linger, capturing the essence of loss and the longing to return to beginnings. Choi’s melancholic voice invites readers to remember what has been lost, creating a stunning tribute to those who have passed. His work serves as a love letter, intertwining memories and emotions that seek to lift us from deep-rooted sadness. Ultimately, it is a testament to love and grief, leaving us illuminated by the glow of what has been shared.
