Product Information
타블로 - 당신의 조각들 (영문판)
타블로가 보물처럼 품어온 젊은 날의 비밀과 흥분을 써내려간 그때 그 시절의 원문!!
이번에 출간된 영문판은 번역과정에서 일부 살리지 못한 타블로만의 번뜩이는 문장과 분위기를 있는 그대로 담아냈다. 번역이 아닌 그가 쓴 영문 그대로를 통해 그의 세계를 더욱 자세히 들여다보고 싶어 했던 독자들의 열망으로 탄생하게 되었다. 이번 영문판에는 「스트로베리 필즈 포에버」 「휴식」 「쥐」 「우리들 세상의 벽」 「안단테」 등『당신의 조각들』에 등장하는 소설 10편이 모두 실려 있다. 그러나 사진을 빼내고 삽화를 넣어 또다른 느낌의 한 권의 책이 탄생했다.
힙합그룹 '에픽하이'의 멤버 겸 리더. 1980년에 태어난 그는 인도네시아, 스위스, 홍콩 등지에서 어린 시절을 보냈다. 고등학교 재학 시절에는 폐간된 교내 문학잡지 「망원경」을 되살려 편집장으로 활동했고, 스탠포드 대학에서는 작가 토비아스 울프가 지휘하는 창작문예/영문학과를 최우수로 졸업했다. 영문학으로 석사학위를 받았으며 대학 안과 밖에서 연극연출 · 문학잡지 · 단편영화 등의 다양한 활동을 했다. 뉴욕에서 독립영화 조감독으로 활동하던 시절, 할렘에서의 생활을 계기로 음악을 시작했다.
2003년 1집 앨범 [Map Of The Human Soul]로 데뷔한 '에픽하이'는 2005년에 Mnet KM 뮤직비디오 페스티벌 힙합부문상, 제20회 골든디스크상 힙합상, KBS 가요대상 올해의 가수상, SBS 가요대전 힙합부문상 등을 휩쓸고 2006년 MBC 연기대상 라디오부문 우수상, 2007년 제22회 골든디스크상 디스크 부문 본상, 2008년 제5회 대중음악상 최우수힙합앨범상을 수상하는 등, 현재 국내 힙합씬에서 가장 성공한 힙합그룹이다. 리더를 맡고 있는 타블로는 에픽하이에서 작사 및 작곡, 랩 등을 맡고 있다. 현재는 MBC FM4U 「타블로의 꿈꾸는 라디오」의 DJ로 활동하며 거침없는 언변과 자신만의 색깔로 ‘타블로 월드’를 구축해가고 있다.

Okay
| Generally i don't usually enjoy reading books however it was okay. I was sort of expecting a bit too much though from reading previous reviews. A bit disappointing. For the price paid, think it's a bit expensive as well. Interesting book indeed though. The Rat was the best story for me along with Counting Pulses. Altogether though i thought it was a good read but for its worth? Maybe not that much. |

great
| well, i bought this book for a friend of mine who is a HUGE fan of Tablo. she said the book was very well written but it was depressing to read it. lol. but then i'm starting to read the book now, and so far it's good. i think Tablo is an excellent writer. but one thing i'm a bit disappointed about was that, i thought it was going to be about him? but it ended up with short stories. but it was still good. |

Not 'that' good

Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed. Reading the reviews before ordering the book I was really excited, but once I actually received the book and started reading it, it felt like a cold shower. The book is not 'bad', but honestly, it's not as good as everyone make it seem. I think the part of the reason everyone is putting this book on pedestal as "the most amazing book ever!!!" is that Tablo wrote it. Not many celebrities actually write books, so when the brilliant poet Tablo published his short story collection, everyone went mad. For me, stories are too similar and too fragmented. While this fragmented-ness works great with Epik High's songs, I personally feel books should give us a little bit more. Take for example "Andante", seemingly everyone's favorite story from the book. I think it's pretty unoriginal (family member suffering from dementia) and badly written. It's like a piece of bored mind. No offense to everyone who really likes this particular story. BUT - not everything is so bleak. I like three stories. Hate Crime, short and written in the manner of best Epik High's stories, A Glass of Victory - bitterly funny story about winners and losers and Coup de Grace, original and moving story but with an abrupt and weird ending. Those three stories have a very strong message and are deeply moving. Especially Coup de Grace- it leaves you thinking. So, if you're a fan of Epik High, you're going to buy this no matter what I say. If you're not a fan of Epik High, I suggest rather buying one of their cd-s (Swan Songs and Remapping the Human Soul are my favorites). And for reading - Haruki Murakami's Elephant Vanishes collection of short stories. |

Amazingly beautiful ^^

I never expected that Tablo's writing is this deep.. his writings is really beautiful and it got me drowned in the book while reading it.. the way he described one thing is really unique.. I really like his book and all the stories.. my personal fave are Andante, Coup de Grace and Counting Pulses.. I'm never gonna regret buying this.. it's a recommended book.. |

Thank you Tablo, for sharing this with the world. (as it said on the back of the book) If someone were to ask me who the most talented group from Korea is (in my opinion), I'd definitely go with Epik High. Without a doubt.. and I'm not even such a big fan. So step away groups like DBSG, Super Junior, Wondergirls etc. Most of them don't even write their own songs, and if they do it's mostly about love and girls. No offence!, certainly not I like them too, but Epik High just has that bit more to where they dare to sing/rap/talk about things in the world and in such an.. -can't even explain what- way. XD And this book is just proof of how great/intelligent Tablo is and Epik High of course. Even my father read it and was impressed that 'some asian' wrote this. D: Told him lots of times not to talk like that, but what can you do about it? Some people don't understand it, I guess.. Dunno~ Anyways, Buy this. It's almost like a little black bible and I'm proud to have it in my home. ^^ |
