Pachinko

by Min Jin Lee

Min Jin Lee's Pachinko follows four generations of a Korean family scraping out a life in Japan across most of the twentieth century. It's a sweeping, patient family saga about the people history overlooks — immigrants treated as permanent outsiders, women who endure, and the long cost of survival.
