Korean gem of a book
The stories are like all the great Japanese ones of the last century. This Korean writer is on a par with Tanizaki and Soseki for psychological depth and twists and turns of the narrative. Revealing characters and arresting plots. This goes back to the best eras of the I novels of Japan in tradition and is a fitting tribute to those masterful storytellers.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
