Description 작품 소개

This is a novel by Hwang Sok-yong, serialized in The Hankook Ilbo from October 2000 to March 2001. Inspired by the Shincheon Massacre in Hwanghae Province in 1950, this work presents the conflict between the people's sacrifice and ideology at the time. This story hopes for reconciliation between the victims and the perpetrators through the ritual for the dead, with the twelve chapters of the book modeled after the twelve steps of the “Hwanghae Province Shamanic Ritual for the Deceased (Hwanghae-do jinjinogwi-gut).”
