She tries to speak but has lost her voice. Her teacher finds himself drawn to the silent woman, for day by day he is losing his sight. Soon the two discover a deeper pain binds them together. For her, in the space of just a few months, she has lost both her mother and the custody battle for her nine-year-old son. For him, it's the pain of growing up between Korea and Germany, being torn between two cultures and languages, and the fear of losing his independence. Greek Lessons tells the story of two ordinary people brought together at a moment of private anguish-the fading light of a man losing his vision meeting the silence of a woman who has lost her language. Yet these are the very things that draw them to each other. Slowly the two discover a profound sense of unity-their voices intersecting with startling beauty, as they move from darkness to light, from silence to breath and expression"--  aTranslated from the Korean.  aNobel Prize in Literature, 2024.  aHan, Kang,d1970-xKorean LiteraturexIndividual works in translation.959359  aDivorced womenvFiction.959355  aLanguage teachersvFiction.959356  aMute personsvFiction.959357  aSeoul (Korea)vFiction.959358 7aNovels.1 aSmith, Deborah,d1987-etranslator.9593481 aYae Won, Emily,etranslator.958666  aAyesha Abed LibrarycGeneral Stacks  2ddccBK  c47549d47549  00102ddc4070aBRACULbBRACULcLSd2025-09-16eDonated by Farhana Zahir, Assistant Professor, BRAC Business School, BRAC Universityg965.70l7o895.735 HANp3010044797q2026-09-01r2026-08-25s2026-08-25t1v1391.00w2025-09-16yAWC
