Daughters of the Bear is an anthology of non-fiction by 53 Korean
women such as a shopkeeper in Itaewon, a doctor in Apkujong, a
musician in Myong-Dong, a housewife in Chamshil, and a student at
Ewha Womans University. Shiver with a merchant as she recollects
escaping with her sisters and mother across the 38th Parallel in a
rowboat under Russian gunfire; share with a young professional her
secret wedding to a coworker; and walk along the paths between
green carpeted barley fields toward a woman's childhood home.
Through their stories, Korean women of different generations
explore family, sacrifice, memories, relationships, sexuality,
society's expectations and constraints, education, and the search
for fulfillment and identity. The book includes a foreword by Chang
Pilwha and translations by Young-Oak Wells, Professor Kenneth Wells
and Brother Anthony of Taize. For additional information on the
editors and their publications visit www.daughtersofthebear.com."
