Rim Kin
Rim Kin(Template:Lang-km) (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 (Template:Lang-km), 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 (Template:Lang-km) 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]
