These nine stories span half a century of contemporary writing in Korea (1970s–2010s), bringing together some of the most famous twentieth-century women writers with a new generation of young, bold voices. Their work explores a world not often seen in the West, taking us into the homes, families, lives and psyches of Korean women, men, and children. In the earliest of the stories, Pak Wan-so, considered the elder stateswoman of contemporary Korean fiction, opens the door into two "Identical Apartments" where sisters-in-law, bound as much by competition as love, struggle to live with their noisy, extended families. O Chong-hui, who has been compared to Joyce Carol Oates and Alice Munro, examines a day in the life of a woman after she is released from a mental institution, while younger writers, such as Kim Sagwa, Han Yujoo and Ch'on Un-yong explore violence, biracial childhood, and literary experimentation. These stories will sometimes disturb and sometimes delight, as they illuminate complex issues in Korean life and literature. Internationally acclaimed translators Bruce and Ju-Chan Fulton have won several awards and fellowships for the numerous works of Korean literature they have translated into English. Featuring these authors and stories: Pak Wan-so: "Identical Apartments" Kim Chi-won: "Almaden" So Yong-un: "Dear Distant Love" O Chong-hui: "Wayfarer" Kong Son-ok: "The Flowering of Our Lives" Kim Ae-ran: "The Future of Silence" Han Yujoo: "I Am the Scribe—Or Am I" Kim Sagwa: "Today Is One of Those The-More-You-Move-the-Stranger-It-Gets Days, and It's Simply Amazing" Ch'on Un-yong: "Ali Skips Rope" Source : https://lti.overdrive.com/media/9D694B4B-10D6-4B71-B493-7F3513A5914E

À la découverte des traditions et de la culture de la Corée du Sud. Pour ce pays du Sud, douzième puissance économique du monde, on a parlé de « miracle ». L'industrialisation à marche forcée et le développement économique spectaculaire ont fait naître ici, en très peu de temps, des conglomérats tentaculaires aux enjeux planétaires. Coincé entre deux géants, il affirme sa personnalité grâce à sa langue originale, non tonale à la différence du chinois, transcrite par un alphabet original d'une étonnante simplicité, le hangeul, créé de toutes pièces par les linguistes du roi Séjong au xve siècle, et qui fait la fierté de ses habitants. C'est la littérature de la Corée du Sud (pays ouvert), et non celle de la Corée du Nord (pays fermé), qui est évoquée dans cette nouvelle livraison de la collection « Miniatures ». Pris entre une culture japonaise très marquée par l'Occident depuis l'après Seconde Guerre mondiale et une culture chinoise demeurée jusqu'à il y a peu sous un fort contrôle idéologique, ce « dragon asiatique », l'un des quatre avec Hong Kong, Singapour et Taiwan, a tracé sa voie sur le chemin des nations littérairement très développées, avec une ardeur qui force l'admiration. Laissez-vous emporter dans un formidable voyage grâce aux nouvelles coréennes de la collection Miniatures ! À PROPOS DES ÉDITIONS Créées en 1999, les éditions Magellan & Cie souhaitent donner la parole aux écrivains-voyageurs de toutes les époques. Marco Polo, Christophe Colomb, Pierre Loti ou Gérard de Nerval, explorateurs pour les uns, auteurs romantiques pour les autres, dévoilent des terres lointaines et moins lointaines. Des confins de l'Amérique latine à la Chine en passant par la Turquie, les quatre coins du monde connu sont explorés. À ces voix des siècles passés s'associent des auteurs contemporains, maliens, libanais ou corses, et les coups de crayon de carnettistes résolument modernes et audacieux qui expriment et interrogent l'altérité.

《你的夏天还好吗？》是作者的第三部短篇小说集，收入8篇作品。作为韩国文坛最有代表性的女作家，金爱烂赢得了大量读者的喜爱，很大程度上应该归功于作品主人公的力量。书中形形色色的人物大多面临绝境，赤裸裸地暴露在现实之中，但试图寻找更渺茫希望的艰苦奋斗的记录。尤其值得一提的是，本书中有的六篇都是以30岁左右的年轻女性为主人公，讲述了当下韩国处于此年龄段的女性在爱情、友情、自我等方面的心理状态。 Source : https://lti.overdrive.com/media/23AC90AB-4191-4779-8FC7-ABA4F88B8856

This eclectic, moving and richly enjoyable collection is the essential introduction to Korean literature. Journeying through Korea's dramatic recent past, from the Japanese occupation and colonial era to the devastating war between north and south and the rapid, disorienting urbanization of later decades, The Penguin Book of Korean Short Stories captures a hundred years of vivid storytelling. Here are peddlers and donkeys travelling across moonlit fields; artists drinking and debating in the tea-houses of 1920s Seoul; soldiers fighting for survival; exiles from the war who can never go home again; and lonely men and women searching for connection in the dizzying modern city. The collection features stories by some of Korea's greatest writers, including Pak Wanso, O Chonghui and Cho Chongnae, as well as many brilliant contemporary voices, such as P'yon Hyeyong, Han Yujoo and Kim Aeran. Curated by Bruce Fulton, this is a volume that will surprise, unsettle and delight. source: https://lti.overdrive.com/media/9768586?cid=37224

Оповідання Кім Еран — мов розмови з давнім-добрим другом. Проболісні втрати, прикрі таємниці, великі та маленькі трагедії, людей, якими вони є насправді. Про те, що зворохоблює уяву і пронизує до кісток. Авторці вдається достукатися до серця кожного й кожної своїм майстерним словом, а часом і не менш майстерними «білими плямами» — бо навіть мовчання Кім Еран зрозуміле й прозоре. Прості й невимушені слова складаються в двоєдині речення: журливі й водночас сповнені надії та віри в найкраще в людині. Source: https://lti.overdrive.com/media/10369697?cid=37224
