Reviews
"A visionary novel about history, trauma, art and its tremendous costs. Han Kang is one of the most powerfully gifted writers in the world. With each work, she transforms her readers, and rewrites the possibilities of the novel as a form." --Katie Kitamura, author of Intimacies "A disquietingly beautiful novel about the impossibility of waking up from the nightmare of history . . . . Han Kang's prose, as delicate as footprints in the snow or a palimpsest of shadows, conjures up the specters haunting a nation, a family, a friendship. . . . Unforgettable." --Hernan Diaz, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Trust "Indelible. . . a meticulously rendered portrait of friendship, mother-daughter love, and hope in the face of profound loss. Kang is at the top of her game." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review "Haunting and dreamlike, this is a novel of secrets and silences." --Silvia Moreno-Garcia, New York Times bestselling author of Mexican Gothic and The Seventh Veil of Salome, "A chilling reminder of the terrible invisibility of people and events that are removed from us in space and time." -- The New York Times "A haunting exploration of friendship amid historical trauma." -- TIME "A novelist and poet of tremendous feeling and precision . . . We Do Not Part [is] a beautiful, mysterious story built around . . . a pogrom on Jeju Island after the Korean War, told from the perspective of three women characters." -- The New Yorker "One of the world's most important writers." -- Los Angeles Times "Astonishing . . . [ We Do Not Part ] is a rewarding endeavor, especially for readers familiar with Han's oeuvre who can recognize it as a mosaic that artfully pieces together her long-simmering ideas on reckoning with historical atrocities, fighting to expose state-concealed truths and finding connection in our shared humanity despite inevitable suffering." -- San Francisco Chronicle "[Kang] draws American readers into foreign calamities that their own forebears had a hand in creating, and then offers a very limited kind of redemption--the chance to discover, for themselves, that legacy of shame." -- The Atlantic "[ We Do Not Part ] blows open the lid on a long-forgotten chapter of Korean history, celebrating the resiliency of life in the face of immense tragedy." -- Harper's Bazaar "It is pain--whether from large-scale acts of violence or quietly self-inflicted wounds--that gives [Han's] writing its uncomfortable vitality." -- The Wall Street Journal "[Han's] abilities are at their most undeniable and radiant." -- BookPage "A dream-narrative of history, remembrance, and friendship rendered in [Han's] complex, lyrical prose." -- Literary Hub "Poetic language expertly describes the mysterious geography of Jeju as Han movingly illustrates how the massacre affected survivors as well as subsequent generations. The memory of a devastating episode that must not be forgotten is revived." -- Library Journal , starred review "[ We Do Not Part gifts] audiences with tragic terror, luminous insight, and ethereal glimmers of hope." -- Booklist, starred review "Even through the veil of translation, the quiet intricacy of the author's prose glitters throughout . . . a mysterious novel about history and friendship [that] offers no easy answers." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review "A visionary novel about history, trauma, art and its tremendous costs. Han Kang is one of the most powerfully gifted writers in the world. With each work, she transforms her readers, and rewrites the possibilities of the novel as a form." --Katie Kitamura, author of Intimacies "A disquietingly beautiful novel about the impossibility of waking up from the nightmare of history. Hang Kang's prose, as delicate as footprints in the snow or a palimpsest of shadows, conjures up the specters haunting a nation, a family, a friendship. Unforgettable." --Hernan Diaz, Pulitzer Prize winning author of Trust "Haunting and dreamlike, this is a novel of secrets and silences." --Silvia Moreno-Garcia, bestselling author of Mexican Gothic and The Seventh Seal of Salome, "A visionary novel about history, trauma, art and its tremendous costs.

Unforgettable." --Hernan Diaz, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Trust, "[Han Kang's] intense poetic prose . . . confronts historical traumas and exposes the fragility of human life." --The Nobel Committee for Literature, in the citation for the Nobel Prize "A marvel of a book, melding an arresting historical commemoration, a testimony to the undying bonds of friendship and family, and a deeply felt lamentation by the author. While narratively the novel comprises just two voices, the memories and spirits of many thousands occupy its pages, and especially in its latter half, the voices feel as if they emanate from an almost ethereal plane of existence. . . . A masterpiece." --Boston Globe "Astonishing . . . This novel is a rewarding endeavor, especially for readers familiar with Han's oeuvre who can recognize it as a mosaic that artfully pieces together her long-simmering ideas." --San Francisco Chronicle "Han's prose is translucent, shot through with poetic turns . . . Han's radiant intensity, her singular ability to find connections between body and soul and to experiment with form and style, are what makes her one of the world's most important writers." --Los Angeles Times "Han Kang's novels foreground richly specific narratives about individual characters . . . Han, who is also a poet, commands an impressive arsenal of literary devices, and in her hands, the national repression of trauma--what Milan Kundera called 'organized forgetting'--even affects the weather. The pathetic fallacy hasn't been put to such good use in fiction since Wuthering Heights." --The Atlantic "A visionary novel about history, trauma, art and its tremendous costs. Han Kang is one of the most powerfully gifted writers in the world. With each work, she transforms her readers, and rewrites the possibilities of the novel as a form." --Katie Kitamura, author of Intimacies "A disquietingly beautiful novel about the impossibility of waking up from the nightmare of history.

Han's novels never make direct accusations, but her very tact makes the implied indictment all the more devastating. She draws American readers into foreign calamities that their own forebears had a hand in creating, and then offers a very limited kind of redemption--the chance to discover, for themselves, that legacy of shame." -- The Atlantic "[ We Do Not Part ] blows open the lid on a long-forgotten chapter of Korean history, celebrating the resiliency of life in the face of immense tragedy." -- Harper's Bazaar "It is pain--whether from large-scale acts of violence or quietly self-inflicted wounds--that gives [Kang's] writing its uncomfortable vitality." -- The Wall Street Journal "Kang is at the top of her game." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review "[Kang's] abilities are at their most undeniable and radiant." -- BookPage "A dream-narrative of history, remembrance, and friendship rendered in [Kang's] complex, lyrical prose.

Synopsis
THE NEW NOVEL FROM HAN KANG, WINNER OF THE 2024 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE "[Han Kang's] intense poetic prose . . . confronts historical traumas and exposes the fragility of human life."--The Nobel Committee for Literature, in the citation for the Nobel Prize "[A] masterpiece."-- The Boston Globe NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * Han Kang's most revelatory book since The Vegetarian, We Do Not Part tells the story of a friendship between two women while powerfully reckoning with a hidden chapter in Korean history. One winter morning, Kyungha receives an urgent message from her friend Inseon to visit her at a hospital in Seoul. Inseon has injured herself in an accident, and she begs Kyungha to return to Jeju Island, where she lives, to save her beloved pet--a white bird called Ama. A snowstorm hits the island when Kyungha arrives. She must reach Inseon's house at all costs, but the icy wind and squalls slow her down as night begins to fall. She wonders if she will arrive in time to save the animal--or even survive the terrible cold that envelops her with every step. Lost in a world of snow, she doesn't yet suspect the vertiginous plunge into the darkness that awaits her at her friend's house. Blurring the boundaries between dream and reality, We Do Not Part powerfully illuminates a forgotten chapter in Korean history, buried for decades--bringing to light the lost voices of the past to save them from oblivion. Both a hymn to an enduring friendship and an argument for remembering, it is the story of profound love in the face of unspeakable violence--and a celebration of life, however fragile it might be., THE NEW NOVEL FROM HAN KANG, WINNER OF THE 2024 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE "[Han Kang's] intense poetic prose . . . confronts historical traumas and exposes the fragility of human life."--The Nobel Committee for Literature, in the citation for the Nobel Prize "Unforgettable."--Hernan Diaz Han Kang's most revelatory book since The Vegetarian, We Do Not Part tells the story of a friendship between two women while powerfully reckoning with a hidden chapter in Korean history.

    There is a color and black and white version of this book. I searched for the color ISBN and ebay proffered this as a purchase option. The seller didn't list it either way and I neglected to ask. The seller didn't do anything wrong, it was the ebay search engine. The book arrived in great condition, packaged appropriately. I am enjoying.
