About this book
A writer travels through a snowbound South Korean landscape to help a friend care for a beloved pet, only to enter a haunted inquiry into a massacre on Jeju Island and its aftermath. The journey becomes an encounter with friendship, family memory and the stubborn presence of historical violence. Han Kang keeps the boundaries between dream, testimony and physical reality delicately unstable without abandoning emotional clarity. Spare, wintry and intensely atmospheric, the novel is less interested in neat revelation than in the ways people carry the dead with them. Its grief is quiet, uncanny and profound.
