Beskrivelse
"Pachinko" by Min Jin Lee is a powerful million-copy bestseller about a Korean family’s new life in Japan.
In a small Korean fishing village, a club-footed and cleft-lipped man is married to a young girl in 1911. They only have Sunja, their adored daughter. When Sunja get impregnated by a married yakuza, the family is destined to a life in the shadows. But then the Christian minister, Isak, offers Sunja a new life in Japan as his wife. The family agrees and Sunja has to follow an unknown man to a hostile new country where she cannot speak the language and has no relatives. Through eight decades and several generations Min Jin Lee unfolds an epic family tale in "Pachinko" about resilience, identity and compassion.

Fantastisk fortælling. Jeg havde dog lidt svært ved indimellem at huske navnene og relationerne, fordi der var skift i tiderne frem og tilbage. Men blev draget af historien.

Læs, lyt og indtag denne skønne slægtsroman i store uimodståelige bidder og bliv samtidig klogere på en anden samfunds- og familie kultur, herunder grufuld undertrykkelse og racisme

Fantastisk bog, der giver et unikt, usentimentalt og dog særdeles indfølende indblik i en helt anderledes kultur.

En fantastisk bog hvor man virkelig får indblik i hvordan livet er i Japan for en koreaner. Spændende og interessant.

This was not my kind of novel. I really wanted to like it, and I certainly did enjoy learning about Koreans living in Japan and their culture and living conditions, but overall the story and many characters just didn't grab me by the heart. I wasn't really moved and I found the writing style somewhat boring and overly detailed with unimportant information. Often, it was hard for me to believe or understand the motives of some of the characters. There is very likely a cultural barrier here, but Lee was not able to help me cross it as other writers have done for me before. I still thought it was worth the read, though, due to the immense amount of historical material here about a subject that I knew nothing about. It was very enlightening in that regard.
