Beginning in Lee's childhood, Grass shows the leadup to World War II from a child's vulnerable perspective, detailing how one person experienced the Japanese occupation and the widespread suffering it entailed for ordinary Korean folk. Keum Suk Gendry-Kim emphasizes Lee's strength in overcoming the many forms of adversity she experienced. Grass is painted in a black ink that flows with lavish details of the beautiful fields and farmland of Korea and uses heavy brushwork on the somber interiors of Lee's memories. 546 $a Translated from Korean. 546 $a In English, translated from the Korean. 600 10 $a Lee, Ok-sun $0 (DLC)no2019167005 650 0 $a Graphic novels $0 (DLC)sh 94008233 650 0 $a Enslaved children $0 (DLC)sh 96010718 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $0 (DLC)sh 85148273 650 0 $a Child sexual abuse $0 (DLC)sh 85023376 650 0 $a Twentieth century $0 (DLC)sh 85139020 650 0 $a Atrocities $0 (DLC)sh 85009362 650 0 $a Personal narratives $0 (DLC)sh 85100101 650 0 $a History $0 (DLC)sh 85061212 650 0 $a Biography $0 (DLC)sh 85014152 650 7 $a Book Discussion Set $2 local $0 (local)tlcaut2639050244615300 650 7 $a Book Club Kit $2 local $0 (local)tlcaut1692200189639026262 655 7 $a Graphic novels $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographies $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Hong, Janet $e Translator $0 (DLC)n 2009028856 941 $a 1 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20240223010114.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3D71B9ACD21911EEBD06BE2522ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
