Momentan nu sunt oferte disponibile.

Surreal...[A] mesmerizing mix of sex and violence...vivid, chiseled...Like a cursed madwoman in classical myth, Yeong-hye seems both eerily prophetic and increasingly unhinged. Alexandra Alter , The New York Times Ferocious...[Han Kang] has been rightfully celebrated as a visionary in South Korea Han s glorious treatments of agency, personal choice, submission and subversion find form in the parable. There is something about short literary forms this novel is under 200 pages in which the allegorical and the violent gain special potency from their small packages... Ultimately, though, how could we not go back to Kafka? More than The Metamorphosis, Kafka s journals and A Hunger Artist haunt this text. Porochista Khakpour , New York Times Book Review Astonishing...Kang viscerally explores the limits of what a human brain and body can endure, and the strange beauty that can be found in even the most extreme forms of renunciation.
