Beschreibung

This poignant short novel follows North Korean refugee Loh Kiwan to a place where he doesn't speak the language or understand the customs. His story of hardship and determination is gradually revealed in flashbacks by the narrator, Kim, a writer for a South Korean TV show, who learned about Loh from a news report.

Über den Autor

Since winning the Munye Chungang’s Newcomer’s Award for her writing debut in 2004, Cho Haejin has solidified her reputation as one of South Korea’s major writers with four novels and three collections of short stories. Her works have been shortlisted for most of the major literary awards in Korea and won several, including the 2016 Yi Hyo-seok Literary Prize and the 2013 Shin Dong-yup Prize for Literature for the novel I Met Loh Kiwan. Described as a writer of compassion and tenderness, her works highlight people pushed to the margins of society, people viewed as “others” (t’aja) by those, both within Korea and beyond, who inhabit society’s presumed mainstream.

Ji-Eun Lee is associate professor of Korean language and literature at Washington University in St. Louis.
