A very short and sparse book. I enjoyed it but I don’t think it left any kind of lasting impression on me. Some of the imagery was beautiful and the reflections on Han Kang’s older sister were very poignant.

Kuvankaunis kirja parintunninikäisenä kuolleesta isosiskosta. Lyyrinen, mielellään hidas, äärettömän visuaalinen. Harvoin teksti maalaa mieleen näin selkeitä kuvia. Niukkuudessaan koskettava surukuvaus.
