Overview

La obra más insólita de la autora surcoreana galardonada con el premio Nobel de Literatura. Un libroextraordinario sobre la imposibilidad de nombrar el vacío y la pérdida.

«Han Kang esboza un mapa psicológico del duelo a partir de un texto misterioso que es casi un libro de oraciones secular. Blanco refleja como ninguna otra obra eldeseo urgente de su autora de trascender el dolor mediante el lenguaje». — Deborah Levy, The Guardian

Durante su estancia en un país desconocido, Han Kang se ve abordada por una apremiante necesidad de escribir sobre el color blanco. Es su forma de dar sentido a una tragedia que la ha atormentado siempre: la prematura muerte de su hermana, a las pocas horas de nacer; alguien a quien no llegó a conocer y a quien parece haber reemplazado. Invocar los recuerdos que la vinculan con el blanco será su forma de conversar con ella, de evocar su rostro, de sepultarla íntimamente en la escritura.

En este libro inclasificable, acaso la contribución más insólita de la Nobel surcoreana, Han Kang se bate en duelo con lo invisible, lo hipotético, lo puro, lo imaginado, lo inasible, lo desaparecido, lo limpio, lo llano, lo gélido, lo hueco, lo silencioso; lo blanco, en definitiva, como sinónimo de pérdida o vacío irreemplazable. Una novela imposible, que de tan luminosa y frágil casi no existe, pero que permanecerá imborrable en la memoria de quien se le acerque.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

FROM HAN KANG, WINNER OF THE 2024 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE

“[Han Kang writes in] intense poetic prose that . . . exposes the fragility of human life.”—from the Nobel Prize citation

SHORTLISTED FOR THE INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE • A “formally daring, emotionally devastating, and deeply political” (The New York Times Book Review) exploration of personal grief through the prism of the color white, from the internationally bestselling author of The Vegetarian

“Stunningly beautiful. . . one of the smartest reflections on what it means to remember those we’ve lost.”—NPR


Shortlisted for the International Booker Prize, Han Kang’s The White Book is a meditation on color, as well as an attempt to make sense of her older sister’s death, who died in her mother’s arms just a few hours after she was born.

In captivating, starkly beautiful language, The White Book is a letter from Kang to her sister, offering a multilayered exploration of color and its absence, and of the tenacity and fragility of the human spirit.
