Two contemporary Korean novellas in English translation. Winner of the 2006 Korea PEN Award. Yun Humyong's first novel, The Love of Dunhuang, originally published in Korea in 1982, takes as its theme the melancholy and despair common to contemporary life. The main character / narrator is unemployed after having quit his job as a magazine reporter. He barely survives on the money his girlfriend earns. One day, he wanders through the streets of Seoul while his girlfriend is in the hospital. He visualizes himself as a lion walking through the desert in western China under the moon. The duality of the character's feelings about his meaningful world of fantasy based on cultural and historical content and the unreality of his ordinary life provides an escape for this lonely individual. Ultimately, it is this duality that enables him to survive in a meaningless world. Winner of the 2006 Korean PEN Translation Award.   Source: http://www.amazon.com/The-Love-Dunhuang-Yun-Humyong/dp/0893047376

未来へと駆けてゆく90年代の短篇群を収める。あのように揺るぎなくみえた韓国の家族の結びつきにさえ時代の息吹が急速に打ち寄せる。旧弊なる村人や役人と果敢にやりあうパワフルなキッチン・ドリンカーのバツイチかあちゃんに新時代の息吹を感じさせる「かあちゃんはシングルマザー」、家族に持てあまされ見放された「アンビシャスな悪ガキ」の警察署に託された日々を描いてしみじみとした哀歓の満ちる「警察署よ、さようなら」など、新しいステージに立って戸惑い、この現在に屈託する心を持ちながら今に臨む人々の素顔が浮かび上がる。収録の諸作品はいずれも現代を斬新な切り口から鮮烈な感覚で描き出す。

I'm just a little bit curious to know why she's here. She never comes out of her room. Is she perhaps autistic?" I pretended that I was curious because she wouldn't leave her room. It was so ridiculous of me even to bring up the subject of autism. The doctor seemed to smirk, a mere patient discussing another patient's symptoms, even using medical jargon. "She's not autistic, she's a megalomaniac. She seems okay, but then-she'll suddenly surprise you by insisting that she's flown an airplane to North Korea." "Airplane? North Korea? By herself?" "Yes, she says she went there to meet high-ranking officials," the doctor said.   Source : http://www.amazon.com/Stars-Bi-lingual-Modern-Korean-Literature/dp/8994006796/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1437982121&sr=8-1&keywords=9788994006796&pebp=1437982126263&perid=1P1WMFHYEVZRDFCS2B8V
