#HanKang's
"The natural world takes precedence in this novel. Especially snow which in turns is a thing of beauty and a threat to life. There is something deeply unsettling about its whiteness."

If you want to understand what is happening in the streets of #America today, look toward Gwangju, #Korea, in 1980.

#HanKang’s #Nobel-winningNovel is not just a historical account.

It is a haunting mirror for any democracy where order is prioritized over human dignity.
Democracy Can Move Backward. Citizens Can Pull It Forward.
What “civic muscle” looks like when the state forgets its job description.

Finished #AnneBRadge’s brilliant #BerlinPoplars & now starting #HanKang’s #TheVegetarian translated by #DeborahSmith. A few other ideas for #WomenInTranslationMonth, but we always finish the #summerholidays with #ToveJansson books which fits the brief #MoominSummerMadness #TheSummerBook #WITMonth

Plenty of talk about life in #Korea in the 1980s and the Gwangju Uprising. #HanKang's Human Acts expertly deals with that.

More relevant to day to day existence, at least from what I've read, is the graphic novel Banned Book Club, which addresses student life.

Finished reading #HanKang’s #TheVegetarian. A moving & depressing exploration of mental illness as well as an ingenious way of looking at our species, the restricting confines of our body & what would it mean to desire to escape to some other form & way of life. #NobelPrize #KoreanFiction #Novel
