What is love?It is the gold thread connecting between our hearts.In this lightfilled and multifaceted book, her first since being awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, Han Kang draws together the threads of her work and life, tracing the connections between her interior and exterior worlds through a sequence of essays, poems, photographs and diaries.A book of reflections, of words and light, it has at its heart the tiny, northfacing courtyard garden at her home, cultivated solely through the reflected sunlight of the mirrors which she must move throughout the day, as the earth turns on its axis.In a poem written at eight years old, Han Kang imagined a gold thread of connection an idea which she explores here with luminous attention, beginning with her Nobel Lecture. She writes of the wonder of following the thread we call language into the depths of other hearts, and her profound sense of an electric current which joins writer and reader.Both intimate and illuminating, Light and Thread is a book for all readers of Han Kangs unique body of work.
