Min Jin Lee, PACHINKO

In this special weekend re-release, Zibby interviews New York Times bestselling author Min Jin Lee about Pachinko, a gorgeous, page-turning saga (and National Book Award finalist!) about four generations of a poor Korean immigrant family fighting to control their destiny in 20th-century Japan."A powerful meditation on what immigrants sacrifice to achieve a home in the world. Pachinko confirms Lee's place among our finest novelists."―Junot Díaz"An exquisite, haunting epic...moments of shimmering beauty and some glory, too, illuminate the narrative...Lee's profound novel...is shaped by impeccable research, meticulous plotting, and empathic perception."―BooklistPurchase on Zibby's Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3O3XDvhPurchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3O0YRaLSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.
