or more correcty writers of Korean decent, saddly my knowledge in Korean is not at such a level that I can enjoy novels in Korean yet. Maybe baby books, so all of the authors presented in this post are Koreans by decent and they write in English...
Here's a random selection of authors and books... Maybe you could recommend Korean authors or novels ?
- Jane Jeong Trenka - (Language Of Blood, Outsiders Within, Fugitive Visions)
- Kim Suneé (Trail Of Crumbs)
- Therese Park (A Gift Of The Emperor, When A Rooster Crows At Night)
- Mari Paik Lee (Quiet Odyssey)
- Helie Lee (Still Life With Rice)
- Richard E. Kim (The Martyred, The Innocent, Lost Names)
- Nancy Kim (Chinhominey's Secret)
- Nora Okja Keller (Comfort Women, Fox Girls)
I seem to prefer books with titles that includes food somehow like Trail Of Crumbs and Still Life With Rice but to this day I havn't been able to read any of them. But I've read the books by Jane Jeong Trenka and I think it good that someone has been able to write about their life yet I think I personally would feel restricted since you only have your experience and your own life to compare with, but so far there has been 200000 Korean adoptees which means they most likely havn't had a similar life... We share one thing that is the notion of being KADs or adoptees but everything else might be more or less dissimilar.
And yes, the problem with Blogger is still not fixed.
