"The first story collection published in English by Lee Chang-dong, one of South Korea's most celebrated and influential literary and cinematic figures of the last four decades Much like Lee Chang-dong's internationally renowned films (Burning, Secret Sunshine, Peppermint Candy), these brilliant, unsettling tales, originally published in Korea in the 1980s and now translated into English for the first time, investigate themes of injustice, betrayal, and terror-on both an intimate and national scale. Lee writes deeply and hauntingly about barriers between family, the powerful and the vulnerable, conformists and rebels. In the title story, drawn from the author's own memories of serving in the South Korean military, the class divide between a university-educated private and a working-class corporal serving sentry duty together one snowy night leads to tragic consequences. In "There's a Lot of Shit in Nokcheon," the psychological violence that two brothers enact on each other over the course of a lifetime captures the darkness and paranoia that pervaded Korea in the 1980s, as the country struggled towards democratic rule. And in the novella-length "A Lamp in the Sky," a young woman's brutal interrogation at the hands of the police reveals the series of increasingly troubling decisions that led her to this moment. Is she innocent or guilty? In the end, even she cannot say. Snowy Day and Other Stories introduces English readers to a master storyteller"--
