Journeying through Korea's dramatic twentieth century, 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 Korea's vibrant short-story tradition.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHere 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.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nEdited by Bruce Fulton\u003cbr\u003e\nWith an introduction by Kwon Youngmin\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780241448519\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.8 x 5.0 x 0.9 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English, Korean\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50124850266416,"sku":"Trans_9780241448519","price":525.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/612ZwyFGC2L.jpg?v=1757500565","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/the-penguin-book-of-korean-short-stories-1","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
