Beschreibung

Gwangju, South Korea, 1980. In the wake of a viciously suppressed student uprising, a boy searches for his friend's corpse, a consciousness searches for its abandoned body, and a brutalised country searches for a voice. In a sequence of interconnected chapters the victims and the bereaved encounter censorship, denial, forgiveness and the echoing agony of the original trauma.

Human Acts is a universal book, utterly modern and profoundly timeless. Already a controversial bestseller and award-winning book in Korea, it confirms Han Kang as a writer of immense importance.

“Bearing that in mind, the questions which remains to us is this: what is humanity? What do we have to do to keep humanity as one thing and not another?” Han Kang has an outstanding way of writing. We dwell into the depths of humanity. Get to see the worst but also a very intimate, yet powerful side of it. I’m moved by the weight and the impact the book has left on my mind and heart. I think everybody should read this.
