This is a tale told by the two halves of me. This is a tale told in two languages. Reader's discretion advised. If the presence of dual languages, cultures, identities, etc. is something that strikes apprehension or discomfort on your part, you may want to opt out now.Still there? Good. This collection is for you.What does it mean to be a Third Culture Kid? How can adolescents caught in the middle between two cultures, two languages, two worlds find identity and belonging? Veteran global nomad Judy Lee answers these questions in her autobiographical narrative poetry collection, 1/2: A Tale of Two Me's. From her experience growing up across the globe in South Korea, Vancouver, and Abu Dhabi comes an original narrative of heartbreak, separation, and acceptance. Navigating friendships, love, and finding her creative voice in the midst of a crushing divorce and repeated goodbyes from familiar worlds, Lee's tale proves that being a teenager isn't easy in any culture or country. 1/2 embodies the literal experience of a bicultural and bilingual identity by telling her story in both Korean and English. This is her debut poetry collection.
