The Long Sorrow

"AN EPIC SAGA OF 20TH CENTURY ASIA!"

"A TWISTING, HAUNTING TALE"

Set in East Asia during the Japanese occupation of Korea before and during World War II, The Long Sorrow is a harrowing and luminous saga of two teenage Korean boys who meet a like-minded monk named Yon Park. After witnessing the horrors of Japanese rule in their country, together, they travel to China in an attempt to gather a revolutionary force of Korean exiles to free their native Korea. What they find in China is something completely different and their traumatic experiences there banish the innocence of these boys and set each on a very different course.
