Ganadora del premio Nobel de Literatura 2024

«La clase de griego es impresionante. En humanidad, en lenguaje, en las formas del dolor y el silencio dentro y alrededor de nosotros. Han Kang siempre es una de las escritoras más lúcidas: ensancha el cielo de los sentimientos». Max Porter

En Seúl, una mujer asiste a clases de griego antiguo. Su profesor le pide que lea en voz alta, pero ella permanece en silencio; ha perdido la capacidad del lenguaje, así como a su madre y la custodia de un hijo de ocho años.

El profesor, que acaba de regresar a Corea después de pasar media vida en Alemania, también afronta pérdidas: su vista empeora irreversiblemente a cada día que pasa, y convive con el miedo de saber que, cuando llegue la ceguera total, perderá toda autonomía.

Con una belleza inusitada, las voces íntimas de estos dos protagonistas se intercalan y se cruzan en un momento de desesperación. ¿Será posible que encuentren en el otro el modo de salvarse, que la oscuridad dé paso a la luz y el silencio a la palabra?

La aclamada autora de La vegetariana indaga en la pérdida, la violencia y la frágil relación de nuestros sentidos con el mundo para brindarnos una carta de amor a la filosofía, la literatura y el lenguaje, pero, sobre todo, a la esencia de la conexión humana y de lo que significa sentirse vivo.

ENGLISH DESCRPTION

Winner of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature.

NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS' CHOICE - A dazzling novel about the saving grace of language and human connection, from the "visionary" (New York Times Book Review) author of the International Booker Prize Winner The Vegetarian

"Both a disquieting journey about the loss of sense and a return to the sensorium of touch and intimacy, Greek Lessons soars with sensuous and revelatory insight."--Cathy Park Hong, author of Minor Feelings

ONE OF TIME'S BEST BOOKS OF 2023 (SO FAR)

"Now and then, language would thrust its way into her sleep like a skewer through meat, startling her awake several times a night."

In a classroom in Seoul, a young woman watches her Greek language teacher at the blackboard. She tries to speak but has lost her voice. Her teacher finds himself drawn to the silent woman, for day by day he is losing his sight.

Soon the two discover a deeper pain binds them together. For her, in the space of just a few months, she has lost both her mother and the custody battle for her nine-year-old son. For him, it's the pain of growing up between Korea and Germany, being torn between two cultures and languages, and the fear of losing his independence.

Greek Lessons tells the story of two ordinary people brought together at a moment of private anguish--the fading light of a man losing his vision meeting the silence of a woman who has lost her language. Yet these are the very things that draw them to each other. Slowly the two discover a profound sense of unity--their voices intersecting with startling beauty, as they move from darkness to light, from silence to breath and expression.

Greek Lessons is the story of the unlikely bond between this pair and a tender love letter to human intimacy and connection--a novel to awaken the senses, one that vividly conjures the essence of what it means to be alive.

Comfortable fit for slip-in fabric shoes
Size: 14, Color: Black/Black
My first experience with Marc Joseph. I typically purchase dress and casual work shoes from Florsheim and occasionally Rockport. I'm giving these four stars because the initial fit and feel appear solid. Depending on the shoe brand I wear a size 14 or 15. My feet are slightly wide but I don't alway need wide fit. These size 14 fit well with wide enough toe box. I've tried slip in shoes before and they just don't feel right. These somehow work and there is no heel slip. My only reservation is the high lip on the heel for slip-in and hope they dont catch pant hems. I gave 4 stars because I'll have to determine durability. Granted they are a light fabric shoe with a soft rubber tread. I'd like them to last for at least 6 months..and use them for business casual work wear during warm weather.
