The White Book by Han Kang

The White Book by Han Kang

Han Kang's mother gave birth to a daughter two months early who lived for about two hours. The writer was born afterwards, and would not exist if that child had survived. This book is a list of white things.

Swaddling bands, salt, snow, rice, a white bird, fog, a shroud. Each gets a short section, some only a paragraph, written in a European city the narrator has moved to. It is not quite a novel, not quite a memoir and not quite a poem, and it accumulates into one of the most affecting things she has written.

Shortlisted for the International Booker, by the winner of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature.
