Pachinko follows one Korean family through the generations, beginning in early 1900s Korea with Sunja, the prized daughter of a poor yet proud family, whose unplanned pregnancy threatens to shame them all. Deserted by her lover, Sunja is saved when a young tubercular minister offers to marry and bring her to Japan.
So begins a sweeping saga of an exceptional family in exile from its homeland and caught in the indifferent arc of history. Through desperate struggles and hard-won triumphs, its members are bound together by deep roots as they face enduring questions of faith, family, and identity.

不得不说移民作家的英文总有一种异质的美,说不上来是不是母语的“正迁移”。很多措辞很精辟,叙事也有一种独特的视角和节奏。当然,仅仅一本书说不上是不是作者本人才有的。但读读好的移民作家小说,真的很有意思。
评分终于听完了,几代人的故事用平淡的语气讲出来。感动于传统女人的吃苦能干,但她们价值观却觉得女人就应该suffer。新一代的孩子们长大成人,想摆脱过去却也永远无法摆脱。家国震荡之中,没有人能得到幸福。p.s.还有霸道总裁的剧情,总感觉怪怪的。
评分一口气读完
评分Same wine, new bottle. 有一个印象,感觉很多现代小说会写几代人的故事,这样每代的背景不一样,人物自然也会多起来,故事情节丰富了,让读者长时间沉浸在叙述中,就像一续几十上百集的那种电视剧,难免对故事日久生情,很难再从客观的立场去评价写作。我们是不是应该跳脱出来好好想想是不是被套路了?=͟͟͞͞(꒪⌓꒪
