This novel from widely acclaimed Korean author Shin focuses on motherhood and family guilt. Park So-nyo, mother of four now-adult children, has gone missing in a Seoul train station on the way to visit them. The novel is told in four parts, from the perspectives of, first, her daughter, and then, her firstborn son, her husband, and finally, So-nyo herself. Composed almost entirely in second-person narration, the writing is sharp, biting, and intensely moving. So-nyo’s children continually battle with their own guilt for not taking better care of her while reminiscing about the times when they were young, growing up in incredible poverty in the countryside. The children come to terms with their mother’s absence in their own ways, and their father repents for a lifetime of neglect. When So-nyo’s voice enters the narrative, the portrait of a troubled but loving family is complete. Secrets are revealed, and the heart of a mother is beautifully exposed. This Korean million-plus-copy best-seller is an impressive exploration of family love, poverty, and triumphing over hardship.

评分看得让人崩溃。不停的煽情,无数琐碎的细节,支离破碎的回忆,不停的悔恨,愧疚,自责。传递的不过是一种简单的情感,对母亲的爱。看了这本书,我高度怀疑韩国没有搞清楚什么是文学。这样的作品,中国的高中生就能写出来,而此人却是韩国“一流”的作家。 韩国文学最大的特点...
评分作者在其中用了第二人称来转换写,有一种很特别的感觉。 感觉像散文,不像小说。 但散文也是很长的很长的。作品并没有特别扣人心弦的情节,但是从作者笔下所透露出来的那种对母亲的愧疚和爱是可以感觉到的。
评分此书终于出了中文版,真的是很力荐的一本书,当地销售百万册还停留在畅销书榜,如果只让我推荐3本,此书会是一本,其他一本会是活着和卖血记中一个,另外一个保留权利... 书中描述一名到首尔看望子女的母亲在火车站丢失家人后, 从母亲角度对儿子,女儿,丈夫, 还有秘密的一个人讲述未...

评分对我 妈妈永远比一切包括生命更重要
评分为什么 我们 会 弄丢mom
评分这本书对我有特别意义,二读。
评分Just a pathetic, illiterate woman overwhelmed by her identity as Mom, being taken granted for sacrificing almost everything for the family yet neglected by the families. The story is not appealing to me.
