Greek Lessons by Han Kang
5.0
dark emotional reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Really enjoyed this, a mixture of poetry and prose. 

Its got a weird feeling though as its originally written in Korean, translated into English but about a woman who learns ancient Greek and moves Germany, and also learns German sign language. In addition to this she is losing her sight. 

All a bit surreal feeling and otherworldly. 

Enjoyed myself, but probably not for everyone.
