"The novel, filled with gossip and family intrigue as scandalous as any contemporary soap opera, reads deliciously like a Dostoevsky novel or 'Les Liaisons Dangereuses' meets Korea's traditional middle class."- 'KoreAm Magazine' 'Three Generations' charts the tensions in the Jo family in 1930s Japanese-occupied Seoul. One of Korea's most important works of fiction, 'Three Generations' gave birth to naturalism in Korean literature and remains a mandatory read for Korean high school students.
