Pachinko
Min Jin Lee
Yeong-do, Corea, 1911
En una pequeña aldea de pescadores a la orilla del mar del Este, un hombre tullido se casa con una muchacha de quince años. La pareja tiene una hija, su adorada Sunja.
Cuando Sunja se queda embarazada de un hombre casado, la familia se enfrenta a la ruina. Pero entonces Isak, un joven sacerdote cristiano, le ofrece una oportunidad de salvación: una nueva vida en Japón como su esposa.
Tras seguir a un hombre al que apenas conoce hasta un país hostil donde no tiene amigos ni hogar, la salvación de Sunja no será más que el principio de su historia.
A través de ocho décadas y cuatro generaciones, Pachinko es un relato épico de familia, identidad, amor, muerte y supervivencia.
Novela finalista a los National Book Awards (EE.UU.)

The trailer for PACHINKO looks amazing. Nervous about this. I absolutely loved the book! @minjinlee11 – fuente2019-08-03T00:00:00.000Z
I'm in awe of this book and the way it combines a 19th-century novel's powers of submersion with a blazingly contemporary sense of ethics. I was basically gasping as I read this saga of an ethnically Korean family in Japan - desperate to know what happened next, overwhelmed with love and sorrow. – fuente2022-04-15T16:26:30.000Z
@HartHanson I really enjoyed the book and was a little nervous about seeing an adaptation

@khemaridh That's one of my very favourite books! @minjinlee11 what would you recommend as one of your books to read after Pachinko? 🙏 – fuente2022-03-22T03:00:37.000Z
So... a confession. I finally, finally had time to read Pachinko this weekend, I know I know years after. I had a hard time letting go of the book, and the characters. What a delight. I think it felt more meaningful to me having visited S Korea. Time for Korean food 🤤 – fuente2022-08-03T20:19:21.000Z
You are never late to a book, but this is one that has been recommended to me for years and I was so glad I got to it. Great storytelling, huge sweep of characters, moving, a neglected history. Do read Pachinko by Min Jin Lee (thanks @gabylee__ for urging me to read). – fuente
