In the Bestseller of this New York Times, four generations of a poor Korean immigrant family fight to control their fate in the 20th-century Japan-inspiration for the television series on Apple TV+.
In the early 1900s, the gusty daughter of a handicapped fisherman, Kishore Sunaja, falls for a rich stranger. When she finds out that she is pregnant – and her lover is married – he accepts a gentle, sick minister’s wedding offering who goes through the way to Japan. But his decision to leave his house and reject his son’s powerful father, closes a dramatic saga that echoes through generations.
Moving in depth, Pachinsco is the story of love, sacrifice, ambition and loyalty.
