Han Kang writes beautifully; however, I stopped reading this book halfway through. It starts out introducing us to a young woman who cannot speak. She lost language when she was 16. Got it back. Then 20 yrs later, loses it again. Seems stress related. The other character is a professor of Greek Language who is losing his eyesight. The story is soooo slow, it's like there's no plot.
