“These books have a perfect balance of text and pictures that makes them easy to read, interesting, and informative. Also, the voice in the writing makes the content easy to understand. They do a great job of telling the story of Korea, starting from the Neolithic times, as well as narrating the stories of the various Korean dynasties in a clear, o...
This book is a collection of samples from major genres of poetry and prose written from around 600 C.E. (modern, people!) to the end of the nineteenth century. You’ll read myths and legends, historical essays, romance stories, stunning poetry, satire pieces, and adventurous tales from some of Korea’s greatest writers, as well as scribblings from th...
One of my favorite things about this book is its divided sections. You can choose from one of four: verse, prose, fiction and oral literature. Oral literature is particularly engaging as it is composed of famous pansori narratives, shaman songs, and love poems from Goryo legends. When we think of literature we think of something read, not heard, bu...
“Was seeking a quick primer to give me some insight on the history of Korea and its relationship with Japan. This is the best I have found so far. Readable, fact-filled, no fat. Simultaneously published in 1990 by Ilchokak Publishers and the Korea Institute of Harvard University, written by a team of Korean and Western scholars, it gives deep insig...
While I could talk about ancient Korean history forever, the modern history of Korea is what captures the attention of most of the world. Korea’s 20th century was not entirely full of sunshine. Among colonization, the Cold War, the Korean War and economic crisis, positive moments are often overlooked. However, despite these difficult times, South K...

With a growing interest in contemporary Korean artwork around the world, this book is a fantastic resource for those more creatively inclined. Dr. Horlyck explores a wide range of art forms f...
Ever heard of Prince Sado? There is a fantastic film called The Crown to get a quick overview of his tragic life. To put it simply, Sado was described as something of a masochist who brutually assaulted and abused members of the court and those closest to him. His life ended by the choice of his father, who locked him in a rice chest until his even...

“Excellent new book is one of only a few that have made full use of the testimony of North Korean refugees and defectors. A delightful, easy-to-read work of literary nonfiction, it humanizes a downtrodden, long-suffering people whose individual lives, hopes and dreams are so little known abroad that North Koreans are often compared to robots. . . ....
Although this is a work of fiction, Human Acts is centered around the Gwangju Uprising of 1980. A devastating loss for Korean freedom and democracy, this eventis a terrible reminder of how we must be better as human beings. With her striking and slightly disturbing writing style, Han Kang is able to capture the horror of these events through the ey...
