Pegasus in Flight
Anne McCaffrey![Anton Hur](https://d1iyvy95qprisd.cloudfront.net/avatars/twt_158608613.jpeg)
@jakeriley This was in 1995 or 1996: TO FLY PEGASUS and PEGASUS IN FLIGHT by Anne McCaffrey from this new online bookstore called Amazon. I wonder if I was their first ever Korean customer 😆 “Wow! I can order books internationally OVER THE INTERNET!!!”

@yilinwriter This is such an extraordinarily egregious case of copyright violation of a translator's work that I wonder if the TA might consider a statement? @DeWald_Rebecca @clarehannahmary @sawadhussain @vineet_uk @rosie_hedger @tallnicky @shauntranslates @rolandglasser @ioagiles

The End of August
Yu Miri![Anton Hur](https://d1iyvy95qprisd.cloudfront.net/avatars/twt_158608613.jpeg)
THE END OF AUGUST by @yu_miri_0622 X @wrongsreversed is my most anticipated translation of 2023, a marathon narrative told in fleet-footed prose of the tragedies and triumphs of the Korean nation under Japanese colonialism.

Playing In The Dark: Whiteness and the Literary Imagination
Toni Morrison![Anton Hur](https://d1iyvy95qprisd.cloudfront.net/avatars/twt_158608613.jpeg)
@ToTheHappyNone PLAYING IN THE DARK by Toni Morrison—especially because I was skeptical about it at first but its ideas keep coming back to me. IN THE WAKE by Christina Sharpe has a lot of big fans, which includes me!

On COUNTERWEIGHT by Djuna: "Part cyberpunk, part detective fiction, part parable of the effects of South Korea’s neocolonial ambition — it is quite the ride." https://t.co/XbXO4629bB

After Rain: Stories
William Trevor![Anton Hur](https://d1iyvy95qprisd.cloudfront.net/avatars/twt_158608613.jpeg)
“Of the 176 stories that mention Ireland, 135 are by Irish writers—the likes of Edna O’Brien, Roddy Doyle, and William Trevor. “By comparison, of the 213 stories that mention China, only 10 are written by an author of Chinese descent. All 10 are by Yiyun Li.”

Open Secrets: Stories
Alice Munro![Anton Hur](https://d1iyvy95qprisd.cloudfront.net/avatars/twt_158608613.jpeg)
@paceamorelibri When students ask me this question, I usually recommend RUNAWAY by Alice Munro (it looks less daunting than her selected stories)
