No Hand Held Mine

Stories — "Granny Wild Goose" and "The Root's Tale"

By Kim Soom and Soom Kim; Foreword by Alexis Dudden; Translated by Joon-Li Kim and Doo-Sun Ryu
Rutgers University Press

In these two stories, "Granny Wild Goose" and "The Root's Tale," award-winning South Korean writer Kim Soom presents portraits of complex women who have emerged wiser from life’s brutality. One is a former comfort woman, one is a modern woman in a failing relationship, yet neither flinches away from their lives. The sensitive translation maintains Kim’s beautiful imagery and musical prose.
