Ch'ae Manshik is one of the most accomplished modern Korean writers
yet is underrepresented in English translation because of the
challenges posed by his distinctive voice and colloquial style.
Sunset: A Ch'ae Manshik Reader is the first English-language
anthology of his works and features a variety of genres-novella,
short fiction, anecdotal essay, travel writing, children's story,
one-act play, three-act play, and roundtable discussion. This
anthology moves beyond the usual "representative works" to provide
a well-rounded selection of writing by one of Korea's most
innovative and memorable voices, drawing on Ch'ae's ten-volume
Complete Works. This edition also provides a comprehensive
introduction outlining the limitations of existing approaches to
Ch'ae. It contextualizes the anthology's contents both in terms of
the author's career and the rich Korean tradition of
intertextuality and intermediality that he reflects from the
country's earliest times to the new millennium.
