Review: Han Kang’s ‘We Do Not Part’ won’t leave you

By Hugo Gerbich-Pais

Kyungha has nothing left to live for, until she is tasked with saving the life of her friend’s bird. What follows is a haunting exploration of the burden of remembrance and historical violence. Originally published in Korean in 2021, “We Do Not Part,” translated into English by e. yaewon and Paige Aniyah Morris, was released Jan. 21. It left me breathless; Kang’s latest novel still sits heavy on my chest and haunts my thoughts. In “We Do Not Part,” Han Kang proves why she was the worthy recipient of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature.
