I just finished Greek Lessons by Han Kang. Beautiful.

This was originally published in Korean in 2011. It was translated into English by Deborah Smith and Emily Yae Won and published in 2023.

It reads almost like poetry. I can't read Korean, so I am grateful for the translation.

Han was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2024. I don't know if that's going to make it harder or easier to get ahold of her other works, but I believe I will try.
