When Han Kang won the International Booker Prize in 2016 the
bonus for readers was that there were more of her books ready to
be translated into English. Her latest, Greek Lessons, features a
woman who has stopped speaking and her professor, a man who has
gradually been losing his sight in a tale of human connection and
communication, translated once again by her fellow Booker-winner
Deborah Smith, working this time with Emily Yae Won. I sat down
with her and interpreter Mi Na Sketchley to talk about the
novel’s inspiration, style and experience for the reader.
