High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Dance Dance Revolution (2007) is an anthology of poems by the Korean- American author Cathy Park Hong. The poems are transcriptions of interviews conducted by the narrator, only referred to as the Historian, of her tour guide in the fictional city called, the Desert. In the year 2016, when the Historian visits the Guide, this Las Vegas- like place, is a place of constant movement; with people from all over the world flowing in and out of the Desert every second of the day, the language consists of words from over 300 different languages and dialects and nothing is ever at rest. As a result, the Guide`s speech is full of words from different languages, mostly, English (slang), Korean, Spanish, and Latin.
