Viac o knihe Greek Lessons (Han Kang)
Winner of Book of the Year 2023 according to The New Yorker, TIME Magazine, and Kirkus. A powerful, moving novel about the saving grace of language and human connection from the celebrated author of The Vegetarian.
In a classroom in Seoul, a young woman watches her Greek language teacher at the blackboard. She tries to speak but has lost her voice. Her teacher, slowly losing his sight, finds himself drawn to her silence.
As their relationship deepens, they discover the shared pain that binds them. She has lost both her mother and the custody battle for her nine-year-old son in just a few months. He carries the weight of growing up torn between Korea and Germany, struggling with two cultures and languages.
Greek Lessons is a tender love letter to human connection, a novel that awakens the senses and vividly captures what it means to be alive. Translated by Deborah Smith and e. yaewon, this beautifully crafted novel will stay with you long after the final page.
