Pachinko

Family, resilience, and the weight of history converge in a story that spans generations.

Pachinko follows four generations of a Korean family living in Japan, tracing their struggles, triumphs, and quiet endurance against systemic discrimination and social upheaval. Lee’s prose is immersive and richly detailed, capturing the textures of daily life, the pain of exile, and the small acts of courage that define a family’s legacy. The story examines identity, belonging, and the sacrifices required to survive and thrive across generations.

Through vivid characters and interwoven narratives, the novel portrays the complexities of love, ambition, and loyalty. Each generation faces unique challenges, yet the thread of resilience, hope, and perseverance binds them together. Lee explores how history shapes individuals, and how individuals navigate the constraints and opportunities of their time.

Heartfelt, expansive, and deeply human, Pachinko is a meditation on family, survival, and the enduring strength of the human spirit. It reminds readers that even in adversity, hope and dignity can persist, and that the bonds of family and culture are powerful forces in shaping our lives.
