Anybody read this yet? The title seems interesting, but I can't find a supplier to buy it beside the European shops.

I have it and I've read some of it. Seems fine, with decent quality printing and very readable translation. If you want a book of Go poetry I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Actually, I would ask the nice folk at Schaak en Go, http://www.schaakengo.nl/. It says on their page on "about us" that they have had clients/customers in the USA so they should ship to you. I've always found them very helpful.

I just found it on Goshop Keima (which is the Go-only spin-off off Schaak en Go (aka Het Paard, in the Netherlands))

I think it is a nice little book, with the Korean poems side by side with their English translations. For some reason they write "Baduk(Go)" whenever the game is mentioned, throughout the book. This is really ugly, why not just chose one or the other.
