Description 작품 소개

Weathering life’s seasons with the lightness of wasted years

Persistence that captures the tears and laughter of the era


Novelist Kim Hoon has returned with his prose work, Wasted Years. From his very first sentence etched upon the page, it is evident that he is a “practical laborer who writes,” one who regards even death as a part of daily routine. Although he is now close to eighty, he observes, thinks, and writes with greater diligence than before. The traces of his long and dedicated labor are fully imprinted throughout this book, a testament to his unwavering commitment to his craft.
