Synopsis
A powerful novel of the saving grace of language and human connection, from the celebrated author of The Vegetarian
In a classroom in Seoul, a young woman watches her Greek language teacher at the blackboard. She tries to speak but has lost her voice. Her teacher finds himself drawn to the silent woman, for day by day he is losing his sight.
Soon they discover a deeper pain binds them together. For her, in the space of just a few months, she has lost both her mother and the custody battle for her nine-year-old son. For him, it's the pain of growing up between Korea and Germany, being torn between two cultures and languages.
Greek Lessons tells the story of two ordinary people brought together at a moment of private anguish - the fading light of a man losing his vision meeting the silence of a woman who has lost her language. Yet these are the very things that draw them to one another. Slowly the two discover a profound sense of unity - their voices intersecting with startling beauty, as they move from darkness to light, from silence to expression.
Greek Lessons is a tender love letter to human intimacy and connection, a novel to awaken the senses, vividly conjuring the essence of what it means to be alive.

Condition: Bueno. : En un aula de Seúl, una joven observa a su profesor de griego en la pizarra. Intenta hablar, pero ha perdido la voz. El profesor se siente atraído por la mujer silenciosa, ya que día a día está perdiendo la vista. Pronto descubren un dolor más profundo que los une. Para ella, en el espacio de unos pocos meses, ha perdido tanto a su madre como la batalla por la custodia de su hijo de nueve años. Para él, es el dolor de crecer entre Corea y Alemania, de estar dividido entre dos culturas e idiomas. Lecciones de griego cuenta la historia de dos personas comunes unidas en un momento de angustia privada: la luz que se desvanece de un hombre que pierde la visión se encuentra con el silencio de una mujer que ha perdido su idioma. Sin embargo, estas son las mismas cosas que los atraen el uno al otro. Lentamente, los dos descubren un profundo sentido de unidad, sus voces se cruzan con una belleza sorprendente, a medida que avanzan de la oscuridad a la luz, del silencio a la expresión. Lecciones de griego es una tierna carta de amor a la intimidad y la conexión humana, una novela para despertar los sentidos, evocando vívidamente la esencia de lo que significa estar vivo.
