Description

Pachinko tells the story of Sunja, a young woman who marries a man with a disability and becomes pregnant out of wedlock. When her family faces financial ruin, she is offered a chance at a new life in Japan as the wife of a young Protestant minister.

Following an unknown man to a foreign land where she has no friends or home, Sunja's salvation is only the beginning of her story.

This novel explores themes of love, family, and identity against the backdrop of war-torn Korea and Japan. With its rich historical context and powerful storytelling, Pachinko is a compelling read for anyone interested in stories of resilience and survival.
