Recenzii
A beautiful, deliberate and satisfying story spanning thirty years of Korean history
Kim weaves a wonderfully nuanced historical portrait, rich in detail and resonant with meaning and wisdom
Kim opens a window into a vanished world in this sensitively rendered homage to her mother's life . [an] achingly beautiful tribute to female perseverance and survival
A bold, richly detailed story about the young daughter of a well-known calligrapher in turn-of-the 20th-century Korea ... [A] vivid, heartfelt portrait of faith, love and life for one family during a pivotal time in history
Eugenia Kim's sensitive first novel, which depicts 30 years of Korea's modern history in light of its ancient past, is an illuminating prequel to present-day events. Set from 1915 to 1945, it's an intrinsically interesting account of the collisions of cultures [and] ... a poignant family history
