Greek Lessons by Han Kang
Did not finish book. Stopped at 41%.
Probably Han kang's weakest entry to date, at least with what I have read from her. Also the only book from her currently that I could not finish.
A lot of words, a lot of flowery words that leads... not really nowhere but you don't really go far. Maybe if I care about the characters enough I would not mind this approach and I can kinda see why she would take this approach but I just do not care enough. Maybe it's just one of those books that didn't and couldn't be translated well enough... Maybe the original text was a whole lot better, maybe it gave a whole better atmosphere... but from my experience it was a really tiring read, not a fun experience.
