Nearly a century later, his granddaughter is living in Japan and training to run a marathon herself. She summons Korean shamans to hold an intense, transcendent ritual to connect with Lee Woo-cheol. When his ghost appears, alongside those of his brother Lee Woo-Gun, and their young neighbor, who was forced to become a comfort woman to Japanese soldiers stationed in China during World War II, she must uncover their stories to free their souls. What she discovers is at the heart of this sweeping, majestic novel about a family that endured death, love, betrayal, war, political upheaval, and ghosts, both vengeful and wistful.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Fiction Yu Checked out 06/12/2024 Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Fiction Yu Checked out 05/15/2024 Add Copy to MyList
