Yeongdo, Korea 1911. In a small fishing village on the banks of the East Sea, a club-footed, cleft-lipped man marries a fifteen-year-old girl. The couple have one child, their beloved daughter Sunja. When Sunja falls pregnant by a married yakuza, the family face ruin. But then Isak, a Christian minister, offers her a chance of salvation: a new life in Japan as his wife. Following a man she barely knows to a hostile country in which she has no friends, no home, and whose language she cannot speak, Sunja's salvation is just the beginning of her story. Through eight decades and four generations, Pachinko is an epic tale of family, identity, love, death and survival. 650 0 $a Families $z Korea $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Koreans $z Japan $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Families. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01728849 650 7 $a Koreans. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00988927 651 7 $a Japan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204082 651 7 $a Korea. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206434 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726589 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726640 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117013953.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=193C8318253111EE91433F782CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
