Greek Lessons by Han Kang

Set against the backdrop of a bustling city, this poignant narrative delves into the lives of two individuals grappling with their own personal struggles. One is a woman who has lost her voice, both literally and metaphorically, and the other is a Greek language teacher who is gradually losing his sight. As their paths cross, they embark on a journey of mutual understanding and healing, exploring themes of communication, identity, and the human condition. Through their interactions, they discover the profound impact of language and silence, and the ways in which they can transcend their own limitations to find solace and connection in each other's presence.
