    Political prisoner Hyun Woo is freed after eighteen years to find no trace of the world he knew. The friends with whom he shared utopianist dreams are gone. His Seoul is unrecognizably transformed and aggressively modernized. Yoon Hee, the woman he loved, died three years ago. A broken man, he drifts toward a small house in Kalmoe, where he and Yoon Hee once stole a few fleeting months of happiness while fleeing the authorities. In the company of her diaries, he relives and reviews his life, trying to find meaning in the revolutionary struggle that consumed their youth—a youth of great energy and optimism, victim to implacable history. Hyun Woo weighs the worth of his own life, spent in prison, and that of the strong-willed artist Yoon Hee, whose involvement in rebel groups took her to Berlin and the fall of the wall. With great poignancy, Hwang Sok-yong grapples with the immortal questions—the endurance of love, the price of a commitment to causes—while depicting a generation that sacrificed youth, liberty, and often life, for the dream of a better tomorrow. source: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3267270-der-ferne-garten

    Prisoner #1444, a political activist, has served nearly twenty years of a life sentence, but when the Korean government relaxes its stance on such dissidents, he finds himself up for release. While he was growing old on the inside, though, things on the outside have changed, and #1444 - or Oh Hyun Woo, as he must now, once more, think of himself - is soon adrift in a world full of noise and activity, multi-storey apartment blocks, mobile phones; even public restrooms have changed, with fancy taps and hot air driers. As Mr Oh struggles to adjust to the present, and to consider his future, he is also forced to examine the past: family members he's lost, one way or another; friends he's no longer in touch with; comrades who have died or moved on... and the loss of the love of his life: it may have been two decades since they were together, but some relationships leave their mark no matter what. Both a haunting love story and an account of life in modern Korea, The Old Garden is about past and present; about loss, regret and looking to the future; and about how some things are simply meant to be, even when - tragically - events prove otherwise.

    Efter arton år i fängelse släpps den politiska fången O Hyŏnu och finner ingenting av den värld där han en gång levde. Vännerna som han delade sina drömmar och ideal med är borta. Seoul är förändrat intill oigenkännlighet. Han Yunhŭi, kvinnan han älskade, är död sedan tre år. Han söker upp det hus där de på flykt från myndigheterna en gång fick tillbringa några lyckliga månader tillsammans. I hennes dagbok, anteckningar och målningar återupplever han kärleken och försöker finna mening i ungdomens revolutionära kamp. O Hyŏnu rannsakar sitt eget liv, och den viljestarka konstnären Han Yunhŭis, vars politiska engagemang förde henne till Berlin vid tiden för murens fall. I Den gamla trädgården brottas Hwang Sok-Yong med de stora frågorna – kärleken, livet och upproret. Han tecknar ett ömsint porträtt av en sydkoreansk generation som offrade sin ungdom och sin frihet, ibland också livet, för drömmen om en bättre morgondag.  source: http://www.albertbonniersforlag.se/bocker/utlandsk-skonlitteratur/d/den-gamla-tradgarden/

    Libéré après dix-huit ans de prison, l'opposant politique O Hyônu apprend que Han Yunhi, la femme qu'il a aimée, est morte. Elle lui a laissé des lettres, son journal, des carnets et des dessins. Désemparé, perdu dans une Corée qui a considérablement changé, O Hyônu se remémore ses années d'utopie et de lutte clandestine, sa rencontre avec Han Yunhi, leurs quelques mois d'idylle hors du temps, puis les années d'enfermement. Surtout, il se plonge, passionnément, dans le journal que Han Yunhi a écrit pour lui durant toutes ces années, revivant l'itinéraire de la jeune artiste peintre des années 1970 aux années 1990, son implication dans un réseau de résistants, son séjour en Allemagne, la chute du mur de Berlin... Se dessine alors un magnifique portrait de femme. Hwang Sok-yong définit cette magistrale œuvre romanesque, à caractère fortement autobiographique, comme « le portrait d'une génération qui a voulu réaliser le rêve d'une vie meilleure ».
