"I am so thankful to PRH Audio, Hogarth Books, and Han Kang for advanced audiobook access before pub day - March 24, 2026.

"Han Kang does it again. In this book, she demonstrates the quiet and piercing lyricism that has come to define her body of work (clearly, I need to elevate my writing to review Kang). The collection opens with her Nobel Prize in Literature speech, wh"

“Last year when my grandma fell and broke her hip she couldn't paint her toenails anymore. So my grandpa started doing it for her, even after he fell and broke his hip, too. For me, that's love.”

“Einar felt lonely, and he wondered if anybody in the world would ever know him.”

“I know someone loves me from how they say my name. Like with my mom and dad, when they say "Benjamin" it's like my name is safe in their mouth.”

“One can become so sentimental about a person's absence, but it's impossible to be consistently sentimental in his presence - when you're confronted with the quotidian selfishness and silence that, I'm given to understand, comprise most of a life. But we were just so new.”

“But all that talk. All those confidences. He shuddered to think about it. At the time, though, he didn't know any better, and he was filled the gleeful lurching and teeth-chattering panic of early and undiagnosed love.”

“I will admit it sometimes felt strange to me to make the confession to someone and later catch them laughing, or flirting, or eating a sandwich, instead of tearing at the injustice of it all or sitting quietly at the center of a grand and monstrous grief.
