"안중근의 빛나는 청춘을 소설로 써보려는 것은 내 고단한 청춘의 소망이었다. 나는 발벌이를 하는 틈틈이 자료와 가록들을 찾아보았고, ... 그러나 그 원고를 시작도 하지 못한 채 늙었다. 나는 안중근의 짦은 생애가 뿜어내는 에너지를 감당하지 못했고, 그 일을 잊어버리려고 애쓰면서 세월을 보냈다. ... 2021년에 나는 몸이 아팠고, 2022년 봄에 회복되었다. 몸을 추스르고 나서, 나는 여생의 시간을 생각했다. 더이상 미루어둘 수가 없다는 절박함이 벼락처럼 나를 때렸다. 나는 바로 시작했다." --작가의 말 중

Even though I'm not living in Korea, my parents were very keen to teach me basic Korean history. While learning and reading about it when I was younger, there was a huge frustration and sadness. Whenever I tried to discuss or explain these feelings to my fellow German classmates at that time, they wouldn't understand. And I noticed that if you never have been a very weak country, a victim of colonialism, you could never really understand.

But. We are still in need to talk about history and what happened in the past. There are many people in the world investing a lot of time and effort into not-forgetting, archiving and speaking. Trying to explain as best they can, especially to those who are not in the same place.
And I thank the author for creating this story and giving life to every character, they truly live within the pages. He not only focuses on the main character but also succeeds to give room for everyone around and behind the incident. I was quite surprised that he also took time and so much room for the bad guy.

It was a very interesting, intense read. But I'm not sure if I can say that I enjoyed it.

From the short one sentence description I remember from history class back in the day to something that has more substance. It gives me appreciation for the period they were living in without so much of propaganda and embellishment.
This is my first Kim Hoon novel and this gives me feeling of very somber, serious, of something that’s beyond the words that were written down. I guess that’s a success.
Read pretty easily and quickly. Lots of uncommon words used but didn’t hinder the flow.

김훈의 최고작이라고 할 수는 없을 듯합니다. 그러나 안중근, 이토, 우덕순, 안중근 가족, 주교와 신부의 시점으로 그 시대적 상황과 심리를 묘사하는 좋은 작품입니다.
