Hello Everyone,
A colleague and I are working on a project related to
Chaim Potok's reception in Korea, especially in regard
to his book *I Am the Clay,* a story of an old Korean
refugee couple who adopt an orphaned child during the
Korean war (translated into Korean as *Hanjumui Hulk*
(A Handful of Earth). The story was inspired by his
experience in Korea as a military chaplain in the 50s.
We're trying to locate any scholars who might have
taught or discussed Potok in a Korean context. Any
help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Deberniere Torrey
