Ep 215: Violets by Kyung-Sook Shin translated by Anton Hur
Anna and Annie discuss the mystery surrounding a killing in Zambia and Delia Owens, author of Where the Crawdads Sing. Our book of the week is Violets by Kyung-Sook Shin translated by Anton Hur. This novel explores violence and loneliness in Korean society. Described as a 'requiem to the unseen women' (Washington Independent Review of Books) it's a thoughtful book if not our favourite by this author. We read this for Women in Translation month.
