Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This is not a story about a good daughter.It is a story about a child who went beneath the sea, entered the world of the forgotten dead, and returned carrying names.In this literary retelling of the Korean tale of Simcheong, Peter Park turns away from the familiar legend of sacrifice and obedience. There is no Dragon King waiting below the waves. No glittering palace. No simple reward for suffering.Instead, beneath the sea lies a quiet world of those who have been forgotten-people whose names were lost, whose grief was left behind, whose stories were never carried home.Simcheong does not go there because she is pure.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu.

It is a spirit born where human life has lingered long.The Night the Dokkaebi Came gathers seven such stories. Each one begins with an ordinary object and an ordinary person. Each one ends with a choice - to let go, to set something down, to open a door.None of these dokkaebi are frightening. None of them punish anyone. They simply appear - and in appearing, they show us what we have been holding on to.For readers of literary fantasy, world folklore, and quiet dark fairy tales.…
