Fiołki with delivery to Ireland

Korea, the 1970s. We meet a little girl, San, who has known rejection since the womb. Not even her baby blanket with its faded roses, a symbol of helplessness and a cry for tenderness, can help. At 22, driven by her passion for writing, she dreams of working in a publishing house, but the post goes to someone else. The flower shop becomes the place where she learns the language of flowers and experiences her first relationships between women and men, which disappoint the timid San with their self-interest and roughness.
Fiołki by Shin Kyung-sook is a poignant story about the child who lives inside each of us and about the piercing loneliness we carry through life. It is exceptionally sensual and intense, yet it holds within it a mysterious Korean reserve. It is written in such vivid language that its literary quality takes your breath away. We feel, notice and breathe in the aromas, and this wealth of experience does not leave the reader unchanged. I discovered it for myself with delight, and I am convinced that its rare beauty will enchant you too.
