A USA TODAY Top Ten of 2017 selection, a finalist for the National Book Award, a New York Times Notable Book of 2017, a New York Times Top Ten of 2017, and a July selection for the PBS NewsHour-New York Times Book Club READ THIS NOW * 2018 Dayton Literary Peace Prize Finalist Washington Post: Roxane Gay's Favorite Book of 2017 BESTSELLER IN THE NEW YORK TIMES, THE #1 BOSTON GLOBE, USA TODAY, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, AND THE WASHINGTON POST Four generations of an impoverished Korean immigrant family battle to control their fate in 20th-century Japan in this stunning, page-turning story, banished from a home they never knew. There may only be a small number of victors and many losers. However, we continued to play because we thought we would succeed. "In the early 1900s, teenaged Sunja, the adored daughter of a crippled fisherman, falls for a wealthy stranger at the seashore near her home in Korea. He promises her the world, but when she discovers she is pregnant--and that her lover is married--she refuses to be bought. Instead, she accepts an offer of marriage from a gentle, sickly minister passing through on his way to Japan. But her decision to abandon her home, and to reject her son's powerful father, sets off a dramatic saga that will echo down through the generations.Richly told and profoundly moving, Pachinko is a story of love, sacrifice, ambition, and loyalty. From bustling street markets to the halls of Japan's finest universities to the pachinko parlors of the criminal underworld, Lee's complex and passionate characters--strong, stubborn women, devoted sisters and sons, fathers shaken by moral crisis--survive and thrive against the indifferent arc of history.
