The White Book

From the author of Human Acts and the winner of the Man Booker International Prize for The Vegetarian comes a book like no other.

The White Book is a meditation on colour, beginning with a list of white things. It is a book about mourning, rebirth and the tenacity of the human spirit. It is a stunning investigation of the fragility, beauty and strangeness of life. Translated from the Korean by Deborah Smith.
