El primer libro de Han Kang desde que recibió el Premio Nobel. Ensayos, poemas, fotografías y diarios inéditos e iluminadores, que componen un retrato íntimo de la autora y conectan su vida con la escritura. Qué es el amor? El hilo dorado que une nuestros corazones. En este libro luminoso y poliédrico, el primero desde que le fue concedido el Premio Nobel de Literatura, Han Kang entreteje los hilos de su obra y de su vida, y traza las conexiones entre su mundo interior y el exterior a través de una secuencia de ensayos, poemas, fotografías y diarios. Un libro de reflexiones, de palabras y de luz, que tiene en su centro el pequeño jardín del patio de su casa, orientado al norte y donde todo crece gracias únicamente a la luz reflejada por unos espejos que la autora debe ir moviendo durante el día, a medida que la Tierra gira sobre su eje. En un poema escrito a los ocho años, Han Kang imaginó un «hilo dorado capaz de crear vínculos: una idea que explora aquí con una atención luminosa, empezando por su discurso de recepción del Nobel. La autora escribe sobre el asombro de seguir el hilo que llamamos lenguaje hasta las profundidades de otros corazones, y sobre la profunda sensación de la autora de que existe una corriente eléctrica que conecta al lector con quien escribe. Íntimo e iluminador, La luz y el hilo es un libro para todos los lectores de la singular obra de Han Kang.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Han Kang's first book since receiving the Nobel Prize. From Nobel Prize winner Han Kang comes her first work of nonfiction published in English--a singular collection of writings including her inspiring Nobel Lecture. A LITERARY HUB AND ELECTRIC LIT MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR. Unpublished and illuminating essays, poems, photographs, and diaries that paint an intimate portrait of the author and connect her life with her writing. In this light-filled and multi-faceted book, Han Kang draws together the threads of her work and life, tracing the connections between her interior and exterior worlds through a sequence of essays, poems, photographs, and diaries. A book of reflections, of words and light, it has at its heart the tiny, north-facing courtyard garden at her home, cultivated solely through the reflected sunlight of the mirrors which she must move throughout the day, as the earth turns on its axis. In a poem written at eight years old, Han Kang imagined a gold thread of connection--an idea which she explores here with luminous attention, beginning with her Nobel Lecture. She writes of the wonder of following the thread we call language into the depths of other hearts, and her profound sense of an electric current which joins writer and reader. Both intimate and illuminating, Light and Thread is a book for all readers of Han Kang's unique body of work.
