Whale  Cover Image CD Audiobook CD Audiobook

Whale / Cheon Myeong-kwan ; translated from the Korean by Chi-Young Kim.

Ch'ŏn, Myŏng-gwan, 1964- (author.). Kim, Chi-Young, (translator.).

Summary:
"The Whale, set in a remote Jeju village in the 1950s, follows the lives of three mythical characters: Geumbok, an extremely ambitious woman who has been chasing an indescribable thrill ever since she first saw a whale crest in the ocean; her mute daughter, Chunhui, who communicates with elephants; and a one-eyed woman who controls honeybees with a whistle. Brimming with surprises and wicked humor, The Whale is a rare, cinematic satire about modernity and myth by one of the most original voices in South Korea"--
