Description

• BUILDING ON SUCCESS: Winter in Sokcho was an indie bookstore darling and critical and commercial success. US publication date will be close to the UK release date, allowing for more global marketing.
• FOR FANS OF: Sayaka Murata, Marguerite Duras, and Han Kang. The novel is understated, lyric, emotional, and haunting, and establishes Dusapin as one of the preeminent up-and-coming young female writers of our time.
• AUTHOR BACKSTORY: Born in France to a French father and Korean mother, Dusapin currently lives in Switzerland, writing in French about South Korea. This multi-nationalism will appeal to a lot of reader.
• A PUNCHY, QUICK READ: This book can—and frequently will—be read in a single sitting, given how compelling and fast-paced it is.
