Beginning with a simple list of white things—swaddling bands, salt, snow, sugar, and white bird wings—Han Kang crafts a mysterious text that reads almost as a secular prayer book, weaving together place, history, and deeply personal sorrow. Translated with exquisite sensitivity by Deborah Smith, the book explores the fragility, strangeness, and quiet tenacity of the human spirit through the color white, reflecting upon an older sister who died hours after birth and the ghosts of those who came before us. Hailed by critics as a masterpiece of profound emotional resonance, this stunning investigation of life and death is an essential addition from one of the greatest literary voices of our time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Features \u0026amp; Benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNobel Prize-Winning Author:\u003c\/b\u003e Written by Han Kang, recipient of the prestigious 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature and the International Booker Prize.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProfound \u0026amp; Lyrical:\u003c\/b\u003e Blends memoir, poetry, and fiction into a moving exploration of grief, resilience, and survival.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAcclaimed Translation:\u003c\/b\u003e Features an exquisite English translation by Deborah Smith, capturing the delicate nuance of the original prose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Perfect Gift:\u003c\/b\u003e A prestigious, deeply touching present for lovers of contemporary literary fiction, philosophy, and award-winning international literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BEETLE BOOK SHOP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52696799740187,"sku":null,"price":424.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/2150\/0699\/files\/718xcEvIAiL._SL1500_6ae090ce-5a04-476e-ba3a-633eebe4e85d.jpg?v=1785406835","url":"https:\/\/beetlebookshop.com\/hi\/products\/the-white-book-1","provider":"Beetle Book Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
