Değerlendirmeler
‘This story of the unlikely meeting of two vulnerable women is a beautifully woven page turner. The battle-weary woman and the pin-up girl who meet, connect, separate: each changed by the brief union’ Heather Morris, author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz ‘Alice is a troubled young woman who’s chosen to become Marilyn Monroe’s translator when she performs to US soldiers stationed in Korea. The star’s vulnerability stirs up conflicted memories for Alice, forcing her to confront her own suffering and the suffering she has caused others .. there are gravely beautiful moments and Lee’s depiction of the war and its aftermath is spare and powerful’ Mail on Sunday ‘Ji-min Lee’s beautifully written novel is a timely act of reclamation for the so-called Forgotten War’ Irish Times ‘An extraordinary tale of the solace that can be found in friendship’ Stylist ‘This short and haunting novel gives the reader an insight into a war that's largely been forgotten…This is a dark, impactful story of bleak survival, brilliantly translated from Korean, with raw and shocking images that tend to linger … a bone-chilling read’ Irish Independent ‘The unlikely empathy between Alice and Marylin is nicely conveyed in a raw, emotionally heightened novel about Korea’s largely unstoried legacy of grief’ Claire Allfree, Daily Mail ‘This is a story about two women who have transcended time. Nobody has written about the tragedy of war with such imagination. It is wonderful and lively and sad and makes you nod in recognition’ Kyung- sook Shin, Man Asian Prize winner of Please Look After Mom ‘Marilyn and Me explores war and survival, grief and guilt, and our complicated relationship with beauty. This poetically translated, richly imagined novel provides a moving, thought-provoking glimpse into a fascinating moment in history.’ Meg Waite Clayton, author of The Race for Paris
