Winner of the Man Booker International Prize, now in paperback: a beautiful, unsettling novel in three acts, about rebellion and taboo, violence and eroticism, and the twisting metamorphosis of a soulBefore the nightmares began, Yeong-hye and her husband lived an ordinary, controlled life. But the dreams--invasive images of blood and brutality--torture her, driving Yeong-hye to purge her mind and renounce eating meat altogether. It's a small act of independence, but it interrupts her marriage and sets into motion an increasingly grotesque chain of events at home. As her husband, brother-in-law, and sister each fight to reassert their control, Yeong-hye obsessively defends the choice that's become sacred to her. Soon their attempts turn desperate, subjecting first her mind, and then her body, to ever more intrusive and perverse violations, sending Yeong-hye spiraling into a dangerous, bizarre estrangement, not only from those closest to her, but also from herself.

A powerful novel of the saving grace of language and human connection, from the celebrated author of International Booker Prize winner The Vegetarian Now and then, language would thrust its way into her sleep like a skewer through meat, startling her awake several times a night...

For her, in the space of just a few months, she has lost both her mother and the custody battle for her nine-year-old son. For him, it's the pain of growing up between Korea and Germany, being torn between two cultures and languages. Greek Lessons tells the stories of two ordinary people, their lives heightened by private anguish--where the light of a man losing his vision meets the silence of a woman who has lost her language. Yet these are the very thing
