Beasts of a Little Land: A Novel
by Juhea Kim
Beasts of a Little Land by Juhea Kim (8/14/2021)
This is an intriguing historical fiction book about Korea from 1917 to 1965. The historical background added a setting and a lot of interest, but the strength of the story is its characters and their relationships over time.

As a parent of a Korean adopted daughter, I have been interested in this country and its culture. I'm glad this title was offered through BookBrowse. I think with its strong and resilient women, it would appeal to book clubs and anyone interested in Korean life in this time period.
