Spar
Capitalists Must Starve
Winner of 2018 Hankyoreh Literature Award, this work is a fictional account
of real-life labour activist, Kang Juryoung, who led a strike at the Pyongwon
rubber factory in 1930s Pyongyang to protest working conditions. Reminiscent of Margaret Atwood's Alias Grace and Min Jin Lee's Pachinko,
this hard-hitting historical fiction reimagines the unwritten story of a female
working-class hero who loved and fought through Japanese-occupied
Korea.
