Halmoni — Persimmon Farm in Korea
By S.Z. Chang
An 83-year-old retired literature teacher battling lung cancer longs for the Korean home and family she can no longer return to. A young physiotherapist, newly settled in England, is struggling with financial hardship, and wounds from her past.
When their lives unexpectedly meet, an unlikely friendship begins. Through books, memories, persimmons, and quiet conversations, two scattered souls slowly become a source of comfort for one another.
A story of roots, grief, friendship, and finding healing in the most unexpected place.
