Our Twisted Hero by Yi Mun-YolMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
It is nice to be reminded why I like Yi Mun-Yol's books so much. I enjoyed this story immensley, about a kid who had to change school (and neighborhood), from Seoul to the countryside, and his relations with classmates, one in particular. It wasn't until toward the end of the book that I realized what the story was a parallel/metaphor for.
Great job by Kevin O'rourke on the translation as well (I wish the cover mentioned the translator, but I'll mention his name here)
