Winter in Sokcho
by Elisa Shua Dusapin
A captivating short read, Winter in Sokcho tells the tale of a Korean French woman who works at a guesthouse and meets a Frenchman called Kerrand.
It’s difficult to tell whether this book is oozing with emotion or devoid of it altogether, but there’s no denying the fact that the writing is beautiful. The story quickly transports you into the heart of Sokcho, a summer town bordering North Korea, in the middle of winter. The narration is a bit eerie, with remnants of summer visible from inside snow covered landmarks.
A great choice for when you’re in the mood for an atmospheric story where not much happens.
