The Times (London) Top Ten Books of the Year The nationally bestselling, "ambitious and compulsively readable" (San Francisco Chronicle) American story of class, society and identity. The daughter of Korean immigrants, Casey Han has refined diction, a closeted passion for reading the Bible, a popular white boyfriend, and a magna cum laude degree in economics from Princeton, but no job and an addiction to the things she cannot afford in the glittering world of Manhattan. In this critically-acclaimed debut, Min Jin Lee tells not only Casey's story, but also those of her sheltered mother, scarred father, and friends both Korean and Caucasian, exposing the astonishing layers of a community clinging to its old ways and a city packed with struggling haves and have-nots.   source: abebooks.com

«Potevano esserci solo pochi vincitori, accanto a molti perdenti. Eppure noi continuavamo a giocare.» Corea, anni Trenta. Quando Sunja sale sul battello che la porterà a Osaka, in Giappone, verso una vita di cui non sa nulla, non immagina di star cambiando per sempre il destino del figlio che porta in grembo e delle generazioni a venire. Sa solo che non dimenticherà mai il suo Paese, la Corea colpita a morte dall'occupazione giapponese, e in cui tuttavia la vita era lenta, semplice, e dolce come le torte di riso di sua madre. Dolce come gli appuntamenti fugaci sulla spiaggia con l'uomo che l'ha fatta innamorare per poi tradirla, rivelandosi già sposato. Per non coprire di vergogna la locanda che dà da vivere a sua madre, e il ricordo ancora vivo dell'amatissimo padre morto troppo presto, Sunja lascia così la sua casa, al seguito di un giovane pastore che si offre di sposarla. Ma anche il Giappone si rivelerà un tradimento: quello di un Paese dove non c'è posto per chi, come lei, viene dalla penisola occupata. Perché essere coreani nel Giappone del XX secolo, attraverso tutte le tempeste che la Storia riserverà a quegli anni densi e implacabili, è come giocare al gioco giapponese proibito, il pachinko: un azzardo, una battaglia contro forze più grandi che solo uno sfacciato, imprevedibile colpo di fortuna può    Source : http://www.edizpiemme.it/libri/la-moglie-coreana

Readymade Bodhisattva: The Kaya Anthology of South Korean Science Fiction presents the first book-length English-language translation of science and speculative fiction from South Korea, bringing together 13 classic and contemporary stories from the 1960s through the 2010s. From the reimagining of an Asimovian robot inside the walls of a Buddhist temple and a postapocalyptic showdown between South and North Korean refugees on a faraway planet to a fictional recollection of a disabled woman's struggle to join an international space mission, these stories showcase the thematic and stylistic versatility of South Korean science-fiction writers in its wide array. At once conversant with the global science-fiction tradition and thick with local historical specificities, their works resonate with other popular cultural products of South Korea―from K-pop and K-drama to videogames, which owe part of their appeal to their pulsating technocultural edge and their ability to play off familiar tropes in unexpected ways. Coming from a country renowned for its hi-tech industry and ultraspeed broadband yet mired in the unfinished Cold War, South Korean science fiction offers us fresh perspectives on global technoindustrial modernity and its human consequences. The book also features a critical introduction, an essay on SF fandom in South Korea, and contextualizing information and annotations for each story.   source : https://www.amazon.com/Readymade-Bodhisattva-Anthology-Science-Fiction/dp/1885030576

ΓΙΟΝΓΚΝΤΟ, ΚΟΡΕΑ, 1911. Σε ένα μικρό ψαροχώρι στην ακτή της Ανατολικής θάλασσας, ένας ψαράς παντρεύεται ένα δεκαπεντάχρονο κορίτσι. Το φτωχό ζευγάρι φέρνει στον κόσμο μια κόρη, την πολύτιμή τους Σάντζα. Η ΑΝΑΠΑΝΤΕΧΗ εγκυμοσύνη της Σάντζα μόλις στα δεκαέξι της χρόνια από έναν παντρεμένο άντρα, φέρνει την οικογένεια αντιμέτωπη με την ταπείνωση. Όμως, ο Ίσακ, ένας νεαρός ιερέας, της δίνει την ευκαιρία να τον ακολουθήσει στην Ιαπωνία και να ζήσουν μαζί ως σύζυγοι. Η ΣΑΝΤΖΑ ακολουθεί έναν άντρα που μόλις έχει γνωρίσει σε μια εχθρική, για εκείνη, χώρα όπου δεν έχει φίλους, ούτε σπίτι, και δεν μπορεί να επικοινωνήσει με τους ανθρώπους αφού δεν γνωρίζει τη γλώσσα. Έτσι ξεκινά η μοναδική αφήγηση μιας οικογένειας μεταναστών, που εκτείνεται σε τέσσερις γενιές και οκτώ δεκαετίες. Μέσα από τους απέλπιδους αγώνες και τους σκληρά κερδισμένους θριάμβους, τα μέλη της παραμένουν βαθιά συνδεδεμένα καθώς αντιμετωπίζουν ζητήματα πίστης, ταυτότητας και διαρκούς επιβίωσης.
