" #AntonHur has played a huge role in reshaping the Anglosphere’s understanding of #Korean books and culture." #translation #koreanliterature www.asymptotejournal.com/interview/an... #AsymptoteJournal #TowardEternity #AI #language
From previous years, three books I read from the IBP were “The Vegetarian” by Han Kang (she won the Nobel Prize most recently) and “Heaven” by Mieko Kawakami, which I still cannot shake off. Bora Chung’s “Cursed Bunny,” translated by #antonhur, was also great if you’re into speculative fiction.
The #KoreaSociety is releasing a video of a talk with #KimSuhyun #김수현 and @antonhur.com #AntonHur on 5 Feb. If you're interested in learning more about the contemporary #Korean #literary scene through two innovative artists (writer/illustrator/translator) sign up docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
#AntonHur talks about his first novel but also about #translation between #korean and #english: "the arts are the true third culture where we can all meet and be in communion with one another across space and time."
