Nobel Prize Afterglow

Books

Welcome to Today in Books, our daily round-up of literary headlines at the intersection of politics, culture, media, and more.

The day after the awarding of the Nobel Prize in Literature is one of my favorite days to read the internet. Usually, I am learning about an author about which I know very little and have read directly even less. Han Kang represents a different case in that I have read The Vegetarian, but nothing else. But other people have. (Sounds like Human Acts is the pick by the real Kang-heads out there).

Today, I’m rounding up a bunch of Kang and Nobel stuff I’ve been reading (or at the least bookmarking to consider reading). Enjoy.

This 2016 piece by Alexandra Alter is a good place to start

Interview with Deborah Smith, who translated The Vegetarian into English and championed it to Anglophone publishers.
