[KS] Yi Mun-yol in The New Yorker

[lee41 at fas.harvard.edu]

Dear list members:

Good news for those who are interested in Korean literature in English:
Yi Mun-yol's "An Anonymous Island" was included in this week's The New Yorker,
translated by Heinz Insu Fenkl. As far as I know this is the first Korean
fiction carried by the New Yorker.
Please do not miss the translator's eye-opening introduction, on line:
