Synopsis "All Walls Collapse: Stories of Separation"

The history of walls--as a way to keep people in or out--is also the history of people managing to get around, over and under them. From the Berlin Wall and the Mexico-US border, to the barbed wire fences of Bangladesh's refugee camps, the short stories in this anthology explore the barriers that have sought to divide communities and nations, and their traumatic effects on people's lives and histories. At a time when more walls are being built than are being brought down, All Walls Collapse brings together writing from across national, ethnic and linguistic borders, challenging the political impulse to separate and segregate, and celebrating the role of literature in traversing division.

Kyung-Sook Shin es una reconocida novelista surcoreana nacida en 1963 en Jeolla del Norte. Es una de las voces más influyentes de la literatura contemporánea de Corea del Sur, destacada por su estilo íntimo, melancólico y profundamente humano. A lo largo de su carrera, ha explorado temas como la familia, la pérdida, la identidad y el rol de las mujeres en una sociedad en transformación. Su escritura combina sensibilidad poética con una mirada crítica sobre la modernidad y las relaciones interpersonales.

Su novela Por favor, cuida de mamá la catapultó al reconocimiento internacional y le valió el Man Asian Literary Prize, siendo la primera mujer en recibirlo. La obra ha sido traducida a numerosos idiomas y continúa conmoviendo lectores por su retrato universal de la maternidad y la memoria. Ejemplo de su obra: Por favor, cuida de mamá.
