The riveting story of two sisters, one raised in the United States,
the other in South Korea, and the family that bound them together
even as the Korean War kept them apart 'A gorgeous achievement' Min
Jin Lee, author of Pachinko 'Graceful, poignant and moving' Viet
Thanh Nguyen, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sympathizer In
1948 Najin and Calvin Cho, with their young daughter Miran, travel
from South Korea to the United States in search of new
opportunities. Wary of the challenges ahead, Najin and Calvin make
the difficult decision to leave their other daughter, Inja, behind
with their extended family; soon, they hope, they will return to
her. But then war breaks out in Korea, and there is no end in sight
to the separation. Miran grows up in prosperous American suburbia,
under the shadow of the daughter left behind, as Inja grapples in
her war-torn land with ties to a family she doesn't remember. Najin
and Calvin desperately seek a reunion with Inja, but are the bonds
of love strong enough to reconnect their family over distance, time
and war? And as deep family secrets are revealed, will everything
they long for be upended? Told through the alternating perspectives
of the distanced sisters, and inspired by a true story, The Kinship
of Secrets explores the cruelty of war, the power of hope, and what
it means to be a sister.
