Product Description

Pachinko is a captivating novel that takes readers on an unforgettable journey through four generations, exploring the profound themes of identity and the quest for success.

This million-copy bestseller, a National Book Award finalist and one of The New York Times' 10 Best Books of 2017, tells the powerful story of resilience and compassion as experienced by its characters.

Set against the backdrop of Yeongdo, Korea in 1911, the narrative begins with a club-footed, cleft-lipped man who marries a fifteen-year-old girl, and together they have a daughter named Sunja. Sunja's life takes a tumultuous turn when she falls pregnant by a married Yakuza, leading her family to the brink of ruin. Just as despair looms, Isak, a Christian minister, extends a lifeline by offering her a chance at a new beginning in Japan as his wife.

Through Sunja's courageous journey into an unfamiliar and often hostile land where she lacks friends and the ability to communicate, her story unfolds, revealing the intricate ties of family, love, death, and survival over eight decades.

Pachinko is more than just a tale; it is an epic story that resonates with readers, inviting them to reflect on the struggles and triumphs that define not only individual lives but also the human experience as a whole.
