By the time his two years at Harvard were up, he knew that he "belonged to an old, small, much-trodden country, where every field, every path, every ruin had its memories, where :very last corner had its story."

No matter how terribly she is tempted, she never sleeps with a man on the first date. Unfortunately, Gittel also has a heart as big as Hadassah. She supports half the dead-beatniks who shack up with her, and sometimes she even pays their...
What the hanged men had in common was that they had all supported deposed President Syngman Rhee. Otherwise, their alleged crimes hardly seemed to merit the death penalty: former Home Minister Choi In Kyu was accused of fraud; Rhee's ex-bodyguard Kwak Yung Joo and Gangster Lim Wha Soo, of corruption; Socialist Choi Back Keum, of "antistate activities," and Publisher Cho Yong Soo was charged with "sympathizing" with the views of Communist North Korea...
