We Do Not Part-Han Kang

We Do Not Part is a haunting and poetic novel by Nobel laureate Han Kang that intertwines a fragile friendship with KoreaÕs suppressed history. The story follows Kyungha, a writer haunted by past massacres she once chronicled, who responds to a plea from her friend Inseon to return to Jeju Island and feed a beloved pet bird. Battling a relentless snowstorm and her own emotional torment, Kyungha embarks on a journey that blurs the boundaries between reality, memory, and dreams. As she navigates icy landscapes and hallucinatory encounters, the novel unearths hidden testimonies of the 1948 Jeju massacre, transforming remembrance into an act of survival and resistance.
