Each chapter explores what happens when two seemingly dissimilar or even opposing elements try to coexist: when innocence is surrounded by violence, when the dead keep on living, when survivors live like the dead, when freed prisoners still feel imprisoned and when the past becomes the present
-Nami Mun, NYT
The Gwangju Uprising wasn’t part of my memory before this book. This slow seeping into. This the type of river-crossing might leave one unmoored on dry land, or clutching one’s spirit and tasting one’s breaths.
If only your eyesight was worse, so anything close up would be nothing more than a vague, forgiving blur. But there is nothing vague about what you have to face now.
Counting and endeavoring daily to forget a number of slaps to the face. Literally and figuratively striking. There’s a methodical nature to it, a forward-working motion which seems illogical except in resentment. Just like singing the anthem at the funeral for those killed by government soldiers. Or performing a voiceless play because the words were inked away.
