The Wounded by Yi Chong-JunMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
2 short stories. The second one (The Assailant) was excellent, detailing a professor's survival guilt after the Korean war, his relationship with his brother in law, who disappeared during this time, and with his daughter.
The first one (The Wounded) was very good as well, although a bit too odd for me. Two brothers, one of whom is a writer, the other a painter. One went through the Korean war, the other didn't. In many ways they are opposites, but they are also intertwined.
