God Has No Grandchildren - Paperback
Description
by Kim Gyeong-Uk (Author), Sunok Kang (Translator), Melissa Thomson (Translator)
The nine stories that make up this collection depict a wide variety of contemporary Koreans navigating a world focused on material wealth and social power, in which family ties have been disrupted and all relationships are dysfunctional. Unpredictable and enigmatic, these tales, though taking place in what would appear to be a shallow, materialistic environment, are nonetheless woven through with rich threads of imagination and fantasy: parables for the self-help age.
