As an old Korean saying goes...
‘You learn to use gums in place of teeth.’
Rhee Kun Hoo was in his seventies and retired from a prestigious career
in psychiatry when he took up writing. In his youth Professor Rhee
lived an extraordinary life, filled with action and purpose. He served
time in prison for opposing his country’s totalitarian government. He
led the efforts to fix South Korea’s fledgling mental health system. He
built a family and raised four kids.
Now in his twilight years, having, much to his surprise, become a
bestselling, beloved writer in South Korea, Rhee turns his pen to the
often-overlooked value of ageing. Here he shares his wisdom and
philosophy for finding a life well-lived, exploring forgiveness, how to
persevere (but also know when to quit), facing your insecurities and
opening yourself to the simple joys available to you every day.
This comforting Korean bestseller offers guidance for attaining
ordinary happiness at any age and shows us that life is a story worth
reading until the very last page.
