它几乎是韩国著名作家金英夏的成名之作。自写成之后，被美国、法国、日本、德国、荷兰、波兰、土耳其等国不断翻译着。本小说围绕着“自杀”主题，对韩国当代的忧郁存在进行深刻而冷静的对视。它描写了一位虚拟职业者“自杀引导代理”如何在社会上寻找合适的“委托人”从而帮助其自杀的故事，情节看来荒诞，但内容却存在着本质上的真实，揭发了被遮闭的内心恐惧与生存的绝望感。小说穿越的场景人物很宽泛，有首尔也有维也纳，有韩国人也有香港人，叙事上可作先锋文本典范，故事上可作通行小说理解，严肃，但好读。 Source: http://product.dangdang.com/20542064.html

Reprezentativní výbor korejské povídkové tvorby 20. století. Antologie obsahuje 14 povídek od 13 autorů, z nichž každý je uveden medailonem s životopisnými daty a charakteristikou umělecké tvorby. Obsáhlá zasvěcená předmluva načrtává vývoj korejské moderní literatury na pozadí historických souvislostí. Témata povídek jsou různorodá: souboj tradiční morálky s moderním životem, sociální problémy, deziluze generace 60. let, láska a samota ženy, život lidí na okraji společnosti, morální hodnoty. Povídky mají, s nemalým přispěním fundovaných překladatelů, vysokou uměleckou úroveň. Po knize sáhne především náročnější čtenář; jeho odměnou bude zážitek ze sugestivních autorských výpovědí a zajímavé nahlédnutí do korejské mentality.   Source: http://www.databazeknih.cz/knihy/tvare-a-osudy-moderni-korejske-povidky-90109

To represent the past century of Korean fiction, this definitive collection extends beyond familiar writers, challenges cultural norms, and crosses political borders. By inlcuding stories from neglected female, North Korean, and wolbuk writers (those who migrated to the North after 1945 and whose works were widely banned in South Korea) and by bringing politically engaged works together with experimental ones, this anthology articulates the ruptures and resolutions that have makred the peninsula. From sketches of desperate peasants in straitened circumstances to fast-moving, visceral tales of contemporary South Korea, the works in this collection bear witness to the dramatic transformations and events in twentieth-century Korean history, including Japanese colonial rule, civil war, and economic modernization in the South. The writers explore these developments through a variety of literary and political lenses, revealing wtih precision and poignancy their impact on Korean society and the lives of ordinary Koreans. This anthology includes an introduction, which synthesizes the key developments in modern Korean literature, and a comprehensive bibliography of Korean fiction in translation   http://www.amazon.com/Modern-Korean-Fiction-Bruce-Fulton/dp/0231135130/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1437532411&sr=1-1&keywords=0231135130&pebp=1437532414313&perid=141FNT9TFYXDV5YFBXBV

Without question, literature is the best place to start knowing and understanding one another. For isn't there a real fascinating connection between writers and place - where people come from and where they go? A very large part of a nation's writing is the story of its roots in a place and when Koreans come to our country, they bring with them the story of their roots in Korea.     Source: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9813879-reading-korea
