Synopsis
In Native Speaker, author Chang-rae Lee introduces readers to Henry Park. Park has spent hisentire life trying to become a true American -- a native speaker. But even as the essenceof his adopted country continues to elude him, his Korean heritage seems to drift furtherand further away. Park's harsh Korean upbringing has taught him to hide his emotions, to remembereverything he learns, and most of all to feel an overwhelming sense of alienation. Inother words, it has shaped him as a natural spy. But the very attributes that help him to excel in his profession put a strain on hismarriage to his American wife and stand in the way of his coming to terms with hisyoung son's death. When he is assigned to spy on a rising Korean-American politician,his very identity is tested, and he must figure out who he is amid not only the conflictswithin himself but also within the ethnic and political tensions of the New York Citystreets. Native Speaker is a story of cultural alienation. It is about fathers andsons, about the desire to connect with the world rather than stand apart from it, aboutloyalty and betrayal, about the alien in all of us and who we finally are.

- o***o (1864)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoThere was a mix up with my order and I did not receive the item. I got to keep the item i did receive and my money was refunded. This seller is obviously very honest and open and I totally commend them for that. They want to make sure that the customer is satisfied. It is not always that you come across these type of people any more. If you are in need of a book, please shop here first.
- 7***3 (2)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoIt is a gift which hasn't been given quite yet. I haven't opened the wrapping but it appears new. I thought it was going to be used so I am very happy about that. I was emailed at each step of the delivery process which I also very much appreciated. It was a successful and prompt transaction. 5 stars and hearts! I can write more when the recipient weighs in with his opinion. Thank you!The Usborne Book of Drawing, Doodling and Coloring for Boys (N° 365267611575)
- _***n (17)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoOrdered this book for a dear friend of mine as her upcoming bday gift and left a note to seller to package it up safely and securely to minimize any damage since my friend is very picky about the condition of her books. Item arrived quickly and securely with no damage at all, just as how I had hoped for. It looks perfect, and even better I get to hand it to her on time for her bday. Love that I could buy her a special gift that won’t break the bank, would purchase from seller again! Thank you!Matched (N° 365266971234)
