Celebrated bestselling author Sun-mi Hwang is back with a
heartwarming new novel about renewal and friendship. This is the
story of a man named Kang Dae-su. His whole life is a miracle,
rising from poverty to running a successful construction company.
In his twilight years, Kang is diagnosed with a brain tumour. He
returns to his childhood home of Cherry Hill. He acquires a
crumbling old house in which to retreat from the world, yet the
residents of the town have other plans. They seem hell-bent on
intruding on Kang's private property. But who does the house, and
Cherry Hill, really belong to? Is it owned by the construction
company who is trying to rejuvenate the neighbourhood? Or does it
belong to the residents who have used the land to play, think,
walk, love and explore for generations? And how is the bitter and
despondent Kang's childhood tied to this magical place? Miracle on
Cherry Hill is a redemptive story of a damaged man regaining his
trust in humanity. It explores the fragility of nature and human
lives and is much-loved classic in South Korea. Includes beautiful
illustrations inside. Praise for The Hen Who Dreamed She Could Fly:
'I was completely sucked into this story . . . bursting with
originality . . . an instant classic' Guardian 'Bewitching . . .
will make grown men and women cry' Independent
