Ha Seong-nan’s strange and unsettling short fiction is collected in her new book, Flowers of Mold and announces another exciting name in Korean fiction. Translated by Janet Hong, these are stories of weird disconnection and dream logic, which disturb and delight the reader. Seong-nan is the author of five short story collections and four novels, and has won the Dongin Literary Award and the Hyundae Literary Award. She joins us in Dublin for this one-off event. The event will be chaired by writer Mia Gallagher.

Presented in association with the Korean Embassy in Ireland and Literature Translation Institute of Korea
