Red Sword by Bora Chung, translated from the Korean by Anton Hur (Honford Star, May 13).

Red Sword is the mesmerizing and haunting English-language debut novel by International Booker Prize-shortlisted author Bora Chung. Expertly translated by Anton Hur, this speculative fiction unfolds on a distant, war-ravaged planet where advanced technologies wreak havoc and devastation. Told in sparse, evocative prose, a slave-turned-reluctant hero must traverse the alien terrain to uncover the truth about her identity and that of her enslaved companions. Characteristically borrowing from a plethora of genres, Red Sword blends a poignant exploration of social relations with stunning world-building, and challenges readers to consider what it means to wield power over others
