First published by The Permanent Press, 1987.

A landmark modern classic about the Korean American immigrant experience and the dawn of Los Angeles’s Koreatown A Penguin Classic Kim&nbsp;Ronyoung&nbsp;(Gloria Hahn, 1926–1987) tells the story of Haesu and Chun, immigrants who fled Japanese-occupied Korea for Los Angeles in the decade prior to World War II, and their American-born children. First published in 1986, Clay Walls offers a portrait of what being Korean in California meant in the first half of the twentieth century and how these immigrants’ nationalist spirit helped them withstand racism and poverty. Kim explores the tensions within a family of immigrants and new Americans and brings to the forefront the themes of Korean immigration, U.S. racism, generational trauma, and the early decades of Los Angeles’s Koreatown from a Korean American woman’s point of view.&nbsp;Through three sections representing the perspectives of mother, father, and daughter, what resonates the most is the voice of a woman and her self-determination, through national identity, marriage, and motherhood.

From the prize-winning author of The Giant Dark comes a beautiful exploration of the ties that bind us and the scars they leave when they break. Aliyah and Ava arrive in England from opposite corners of the world with dreams built upon Emily Bronte, Brideshead Revisited and Richard Curtis films. Instead, in the shadow of their historic, fairytale campus, they get the sense that they don't belong. The two form a Vita-and-Virginia-like bond, building a world full of stories that they write together. For a time, they are inseparable in their identity as 'strange girls'. When the end of university looms, they will have to return to the world where a devotion like this seems impossible to maintain. Years later, Aliyah has everything Ava wants - a room of her own and a publishing deal - and, worse, the thing Ava was certain neither of them had ever wanted: a sensible doctor husband. Arriving back in London for a mutual friend's hen party, Ava is desperate to unpack the truth of what she really meant to Aliyah. Was what they had - whatever you call it - real? And what will become of the stories they tell themselves about one another?

One week, every three years. Two women come together to test the endurance of their bond and to ask: what if? 2013, England. Ava and Aliya meet at university just outside of London. Ava is the quiet American who didn't come to England to meet boys in Jack Wills sweatpants with gelled hair. She's here for Emily Brontë and Brideshead Revisited. Everything disappoints her until: Aliya. Aliya is shy, earnest and this is the first time she has been away from her parents who live in Pakistan and the sense of freedom is overwhelming. When they meet, there's an immediate spark. While everyone else is getting drunk on love, life, sex, drugs, they are getting drunk on each other. They move in together, become twin-like, wife-like in their devotion. They sleep in the same bed, read out loud to each other, finish each other's sandwiches. But in their very last week, something breaks between them and Ava flies back to America alone. Three years later, Ava swishes into London with her new boyfriend, a director opening a play in London. Aliya is nervous and feels stalled in a life that used to seem full of promise. Meanwhile Ava's been at drama school and her life looks glamorous and exciting. But as the cracks start to appear in the façade, the two begin to find their fragile connection again. Will this be the year they admit their feelings for each other? Or next time? Or the time after that? What readers are saying about Sarvat Hasin: 'Heartbreaking, beautiful, epic. I loved it.' Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Mercies 'Blindingly brilliant . . . I cannot wait to read everything she writes.' Daisy Johnson, author of Everything Under 'A beautiful and imaginative reinterpretation that had me spellbound.' Jennifer Saint, author of Ariadne 'A wholly original story.' Guardian

War, Culture and Society

Through an in-depth analysis of wartime essays and literary works, Literature and Cultural Identity during the Korean War considers the similarities and differences in the way that writers from both North and South Korea perceived and experienced the conflict. 

In this book, Jerôme de Wit examines the social impact of major themes in the output of these writers, such as the notion of collaboration, the portrayal of the enemy and heroes, and the role of women during war, to further our understanding of the wartime identities that were constructed by the two Koreas. The result is a nuanced and enlightening study which provides a base for a full exploration of the role culture in the formation of North and South Korean states.

Until now, most studies have tended to focus on the Korean War's role in big power relations or on Korea's role in Cold War history. Literature and Cultural Identity during the Korean War demonstrates that the struggle was simultaneously an international 'total' war as well as a civil one. It is an important study for anyone interested in the literature and culture of the Korean War.

Literature and Cultural Identity during the Korean War

Arguably the greatest novel of the twentieth century, James Joyce's Ulysses remains as much of a shocking and redemptive testament to the human condition as it was when it was first conceived in 1914. Following the events of a single day in Dublin and the experiences of Stephen Dedalus, Leopold Bloom and his wife Molly, Ulysses' ceaseless verbal and formal inventiveness and its astonishing wide-ranging allusions continue to have a profound influence on contemporary culture. A new, annotated students' edition of one of the twentieth century's greatest novels, using the original 1922 text, now the preferred text of Joyce's masterwork, this annotated Student Edition includes extensive notes, line numbers and an introduction by world-renowned Joycean scholar, Andrew Gibson.

For Joyce, literature is 'the eternal affirmation of the spirit of man'. Written between 1914 and 1921, Ulysses has survived bowdlerisation, legal action and bitter controversy. An undisputed modernist classic, its ceaseless verbal inventiveness and astonishing wide-ranging allusions confirm its standing as an imperishable monument to the human condition. A new edition of one of the twentieth century's greatest novels, using the original 1922 text - now the preferred text of Joyce's masterwork - this annotated Student Edition includes extensive notes, line numbers and an introduction by world-renowned Joycean scholar, Andrew Gibson.

Ulysses

Iceland, 1655 When a land of ice and fire, legends and sagas is swept into the Protestant Reformation, a witch-hunting craze begins. Unusually, those condemned and burned as witches are not women, but respectable men of learning. Þuríður Jónsdóttir has grown up praying to the old gods, and watching her father and brother practise rune magic. When the two men are accused of witchcraft and condemned to burn at the stake, Þuríður is helpless to save them. But as Lutheran Pastor Jón Magnússon's accusing gaze turns to Þuríður, he will find that she is a woman prepared to fight back. In an age of fear and persecution, whose side will the village take? Who will fight for justice?Set against a backdrop of sweeping religious and social change, this is a story of the most famous witch trial in Iceland - where one woman stands up to the patriarchal forces against her.
