Krátky popis
A sweeping, multi-generational tale blending fable, farce, and
fantasy-a masterpiece of modern fiction perfect for fans of One
Hundred Years of Solitude. A woman sells her daughter to a passing
beekeeper for two jars of honey. A baby weighing fifteen pounds is
born in the depths of winter but named ",Girl of Spring",.A storm
brings down the roof of a ramshackle restaurant to reveal a hidden
fortune. These are just some of the events that set Cheon
Myeong-kwan's beautifully crafted, wild world in motion. Set in a
remote village in South Korea, Whale follows the lives of its
linked characters: Geumbok, who has been chasing an indescribable
thrill ever since she first saw a whale crest in the ocean, her
mute daughter, Chunhui, who communicates with elephants, and a
one-eyed woman who controls honeybees with a whistle.Brimming with
surprises and wicked humour, Whale is an adventure-satire of epic
proportions, by one of international literature's the most original
voices.
