Rim Kin

Rim Kin(Khmer: រីម គីន) (1911–1959) was a Cambodian writer, and one of the founders of Cambodian modern literature.[1] Published in 1938, he was the author of Sophat (Khmer: សូផាត), the first published novel in Cambodia,[2] and Cambodian's first modern novel to be written in prose rather than the customary verse form.[3] It became a 1964 movie of the same name. In 1935, the weekly Cambodian newspaper Ratri Thnai Saur (Khmer: រាត្រីថ្ងៃសៅរ៍?) was founded and it hosted the first modern serial stories of Kin.[1] From 1955 through 1957, Kin was the first president of the Khmer Writers' Association.[4]

gollark: I'm imagining all the evil stuff I could make stuff do.
gollark: You could call it "5.15". Probably shouldn't. But could.
gollark: Add and subtract are some kind of compose, I forgot which way round, and concat is... some kind of arrowy operator? It returns a new function which runs two functions on the same input and returns two outputs.
