She frequently explores challenging themes such as pain, identity and human relationships in her writing. Her novel The Vegetarian brought her international\n                      recognition, winning the International Booker Prize in 2016. In 2024, she became the first Asian woman and Korean to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature. I love her writing and have learnt a lot about Korean history through her\n                      books. I am looking forward to more of her books being translated into English.<\/p>\n                  <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div data-colibri-id=\"20805-c6\" class=\"h-row-container gutters-row-lg-2 gutters-row-md-2 gutters-row-0 gutters-row-v-lg-2 gutters-row-v-md-2 gutters-row-v-2 style-1560 style-local-20805-c6 position-relative\">\n        <!---->\n        <div class=\"h-row justify-content-lg-center justify-content-md-center justify-content-center align-items-lg-stretch align-items-md-stretch align-items-stretch gutters-col-lg-2 gutters-col-md-2 gutters-col-0 gutters-col-v-lg-2 gutters-col-v-md-2 gutters-col-v-2\">\n          <!---->\n          <div class=\"h-column h-column-container d-flex h-col-lg-auto h-col-md-auto h-col-auto style-585-outer style-local-20805-c7-outer\">\n            <div data-colibri-id=\"20805-c7\" class=\"d-flex h-flex-basis h-column__inner h-px-lg-2 h-px-md-2 h-px-2 v-inner-lg-2 v-inner-md-2 v-inner-2 style-585 style-local-20805-c7 position-relative\">\n              <!---->\n              <!---->\n              <div class=\"w-100 h-y-container h-column__content h-column__v-align flex-basis-100 align-self-lg-start align-self-md-start align-self-start\">\n                <!---->\n                <div data-colibri-id=\"20805-c8\" class=\"h-text h-text-component style-1563 style-local-20805-c8 position-relative h-element\">\n                  <!---->\n                  <!---->\n                  <div class=\"\">\n                    <p>\n                      <a href=\"https:\/\/redheadwithabrain.ch\/index.php\/2025\/08\/07\/the-vegetarian-han-kang-2007\">The Vegetarian<\/a> (2007)\n                      <br>\n                      <a href=\"https:\/\/redheadwithabrain.ch\/index.php\/2025\/08\/02\/greek-lessons-han-kang-2011\">Greek Lessons<\/a> (2011)\n                      <br>\n                      <a href=\"https:\/\/redheadwithabrain.ch\/index.php\/2025\/08\/05\/humans-acts-han-kang-2016\">Human Acts<\/a> (2014)\n                      <br>\n                      <a href=\"https:\/\/redheadwithabrain.ch\/index.php\/2025\/08\/02\/the-white-book-han-kang\">The White Book<\/a> (2016)\n                      <br>\n                      <a href=\"https:\/\/redheadwithabrain.ch\/index.php\/2025\/07\/29\/we-do-not-part-han-kang-2021\">We Do Not Part <\/a>(2021)\n                      <br>\n                      <a href=\"https:\/\/redheadwithabrain.ch\/index.php\/2026\/05\/02\/light-and-thread-han-kang-2026\">Light and Thread<\/a> (2025)\n                      <br>\n                    <\/p>\n                  <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Han Kang is a South Korean writer renowned for her calm and poetic style.
