No One Writes Back by Jang Jin-sung

In this poignant and introspective novel, a young man embarks on a journey with his blind dog, seeking solace and understanding in a world that often feels disconnected. As he travels from town to town, he writes letters to the people he meets, hoping for a response that never comes. Through these letters, he reflects on themes of loneliness, communication, and the human desire for connection. The narrative delves into the protagonist's inner world, exploring his struggles with identity and belonging, while subtly critiquing the modern world's tendency to overlook the importance of genuine human interaction.
