jendoop 's review for:

Please Look After Mom by Kyung-sook Shin

4.0

---

This book was a refreshing read, maybe because the author originally wrote it in Korean. There are passages that ramble, but overall I appreciated the way that the mother is revealed through the perspective of those who knew her best. A reflection on motherhood, gratitude, and family that is worth a read. Although, if you like a book packed with action and a firm resolution this is not for you.
