Made in Korea

Made in Korea is a book that blends tone, genre and form. It is the image of Korea itself, showing a reality that is varied and surprising yet contradictory.
Portrayed with humour and commitment, South Korea ceases to be a caricature, summoned up by our Western preconceptions and complacency. Touchingly, the country invites us to visit it. “Trials of Korean Indecision”, a story of summer in the south of the peninsula, is followed by a little geohistorical atlas of Korea. Encompassing the two Koreas, this atlas makes the history and the societies of this double country more accessible. The map adds weight to the travel tale as an integral part of the whole.
Who said that Korea has nothing to teach us?
