SYNOPSIS
What is love?
It is the gold thread connecting between our hearts.
In this light-filled and multi-faceted 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, north-facing 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 Kang’s unique body of work.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Han Kang
Prémio Nobel da Literatura 2024
Han Kang nasceu em Gwangju, na Coreia do Sul. Em 1994 começou a sua carreira de escritora vencendo o primeiro lugar de um concurso literário em Seul. A Vegetariana (2016), o seu primeiro romance publicado pela Dom Quixote, ganhou o Man Booker International Prize em 2016. Atos Humanos (2017) venceu o Prémio Manhae na Coreia do Sul e o Prémio Malaparte em Itália. A obra seguinte, O Livro Branco (2019), foi finalista do Man Booker International Prize 2018. Publicou ainda Lições de Grego (2023) e, em 2025, Despedidas Impossíveis, que venceu na edição francesa o Prémio Médicis 2023, na categoria de romance estrangeiro.
Han Kang recebeu igualmente os prémios literários Yi Sang, Jovens Criadores, Melhor Romance da Coreia, Hwang Sun-won e Dongri. E, «pela sua intensa prosa poética que confronta traumas históricos e expõe a fragilidade da vida humana», foi galardoada com o Prémio Nobel de Literatura em 2024.
