Ten Thousand Sorrows

Trama

A shocking, moving and beautifully written Korean woman's memoir. The illegitimate daughter of a Korean peasant and an American GI, Elizabeth spent her early years as a social outcast because of the Korean taboo against the mixing of races. Ostracised by her mother's family and village, she and her mother were regularly pelted with stones on their way home from the rice fields.
