No one had ever taught me how to address a person's soul. And perhaps, or so it seemed, my companion was equally baffled. Without the bulwark of language, still we sensed, as a physical force, our existence in the mind of the other. When eventually, I felt him sigh away, his resignation, his abandonment, left me alone again.

The national anthem rang out like a circular refrain, one verse clashing with another against the constant background of weeping, and you listened with bated breath to the subtle dissonance this created. As though this, finally, might help you understand what the nation really was.

Why would you sing the national anthem for people who'd been killed by soldiers? Why cover the coffin with the Taegukgi? As though it wasn't the nation itself that had murdered them.

๐ฌ from what I understood of the books summary there will be changing POVs & with the heavy topic the second person narration is obviously gonna help frame & feel ....BUT.....
....MY GOD DO I HATE THAT WRITING STYLE.... always hits me in the head when I'm not prepared for it because I like to forget it exists... (This is on me and very, very nit picky. Han Kang writes well I'm just an annoying cunt sometimes)
