Please Look After Mom by Kyung-sook Shin

4.0

---

I thought this was a fabulous book that tugged on my heart strings. A very powerful story of a mother's disappearance and the subsequent reflections of her children, husband and even mom herself. This story of familial love, with all its imperfections, are painfully and lovingly exposed through the narrative of each character. I had a little trouble with the author's second person narration initially but as the novel went on I found it to be very powerful. I highly recommend this book.
