In this New York Times bestseller, four generations of a poor Korean immigrant family fight to control their destiny in 20th-century Japan.
"Stunning." -The New York Times Book Review
In the early 1900s, teenaged Sunja, the adored daughter of a crippled fisherman, falls for a wealthy stranger. When she discovers she is pregnant-and that her lover is married-she accepts an offer of marriage from a gentle, sickly minister passing through on his way to Japan. But her decision to abandon her home, and to reject her son's powerful father, sets off a dramatic saga that will echo down through the generations.
Profoundly moving, Pachinko is a story of love, sacrifice, ambition, and loyalty.

The. Best. Book. I read in 2020. It was my first lockdown novel and I must say this book - this story - triggered a nearly yearlong reading slump because I couldn't stop thinking about it. This is probably THE book I will never stop recommending to people. I was so invested in the story and the characters. MUST READ!

a deeply moving, immersive, and well-written book about people who have been erased from history books
it opened my eyes to the struggles and discrimination many Koreans faced in Japan i was hooked from the beginning, i only wish it had been split into two books - the second part felt a bit rushed, and I missed more emotional development and insight into the inner lives of all the characters
