<\/p>\n
Next Monday 15th April from 19.30 to 20.30, the Korean Cultural Centre, Las Afueras Publishing House <\/strong>and Tipos Infames Bookshop, <\/strong>with the collaboration of Casa Asia,<\/strong> present a meeting in this bookshop (Calle de San Joaqu\u00edn, 3) with the Korean writer Kim Hye-jin<\/strong>. Free entrance until full capacity is reached.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Kim Hye-jin, one of the most outstanding and original writers in contemporary Korean literature, will talk to journalist and writer Eva Piquer<\/strong> about her literary work following the publication of her latest novel, I’m all ears<\/em>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n With her political yet intimate prose and incisive, minimalist style, Piquer’s novels have the same effect as ice when you touch it with your hands: you freeze and burn at the same time. This sensation unfolds in the face of the ambivalence aroused by the protagonists of her novels. Kim Hye-jin has shown a great ability to adopt original points of view, shying away from the obvious, and has made it clear that he prefers to make the reader uncomfortable with complex and ambiguous situations.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n His novels Sobre mi hija (<\/em> 2022) and Soy toda o\u00eddos<\/em> (2024), published for the first time in Spanish by Las afueras, deal with themes such as vulnerability, precariousness, cures and the culture of cancellation that are at the core of an apparently distant society. In this conversation, Kim Hye-jin will talk about her literary universe and her ability to create essential universal stories about the ways of living in the contemporary world.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Next Monday 15 April from 19.30 to 20.30, the Korean Cultural Centre presents a meeting with the Korean writer Kim Hye-jin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":71940,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"jnews_override_counter":[],"jnews_post_split":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[178,176],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-82868","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-culture-art","category-leisure"],"yoast_head":"\n
