And I'd love to read some good Korean lit. I'll watch for your reviews. That Dunant book sounds interesting, I love stories with nuns in them. And I’d love to read some good Korean lit.

There are 25 books (and counting) in the series and each is slender and normally contains 2-3 stories. More modern Korean literature is even more interesting, but the translation of it goes forward at a snail's pace.

I'm curious what exactly his "thought crimes" were. Just so sad. The Sarah Dunant book looks excellent! The story about the author of Wings is so sad, and makes me want to read the book.
