DESCRIPTION:This month we will be reading
We D
o Not Part
by Han Kang
(translated by E. Yaewon and Paige An
iyah Morris)
This new novel from Han Kan
g, winner of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature, tells the story of friends
hip between two women while powerfully reckoning with a hidden chapter of K
orean history.
One winter morning, Kyungha receives an urgent message
from her friend Inseon to visit her at a hospital in Seoul. Inseon has inj
ured herself in an accident, and she begs Kyungha to return to Jeju Island,
where she lives, to save her beloved pet—a white bird called Ama.
A s
nowstorm hits the island when Kyungha arrives. She must reach Inseon’s hous
e at all costs, but the icy wind and squalls slow her down as night begins
to fall. She wonders if she will arrive in time to save the animal—or even
survive the terrible cold that envelops her with every step.
Lost in a
world of snow, she doesn't yet suspect the vertiginous plunge into the dar
kness that awaits her at her friend's house. Blurring the boundaries betwee
n dream and reality, We Do Not Part powerfully il
luminates a forgotten chapter in Korean history, buried for decades—bringin
g to light the lost voices of the past to save them from oblivion. Both a h
ymn to an enduring friendship and an argument for remembering, it is the st
ory of profound love in the face of unspeakable violence—and a celebration
of life, however fragile it might be. (Penguin Random House)
Hogarth,
272 pp, 2025
An excerpt of the novel, Heavy Snow, appeared in The New
Yorker in November, 2024
