Summary

Set in Korea and the United States from the postwar era to contemporary times, Krys Lee's stunning fiction debut illuminates a people struggling to reconcile the turmoil of their collective past with the rewards and challenges of their present. Amid the famine in North Korea, the financial crisis of South Korea, and the cramped apartments and Koreatown strip malls of the United States, Krys Lee's vivid and luminous tales speak to the political and financial hardships of life in Korea and the uniquely unmoored immigrant experience. In the tradition of Chang-rae Lee's Native Speakerand Jhumpa Lahiri's Interpreter of Maladies, Drifting Houseis an unforgettable work exploring love, identity, war, and the homes we make for ourselves, by a dazzling new writer.
