Lemon
by Kwon Yeo-sun
LEMON by KWON YEO-SUN translated by JANET HONG
Korean March is well and truly upon us and I had to find time to read a book from one of my favourite (literary) places. I’ve never actually been there but I’ve read and loved every Korean book I’ve ever come across. This is no exception.
It’s a crime story unlike any other. The novel begins with the crime, but the chapters that follow show the lives of the of the people affected by the crime in the years after. In true translated Korean literature style, it’s short and sharp and without fuss. It’s expertly told with no surplus wordage.
And look at this cover. Go out and buy it now so that you can read it in time for Korean March.
