"If this makes Greek Lessons sound a little like a morality tale, it is more accurately pictured – as references to Plato and Socrates suggest – as a philosophical examination of selfhood and contingency. It considers the problem of what is gained when something is lost ... Han has assembled a striking montage of the ways in which our connection with what lies within and beyond us is fragile but, if we choose it to be, no less precious for that."
MICHELE FILGATE,THE LOS ANGELES TIMES
"Her alienated perspective can be relentless at times, like a recurring nightmare in which you keep walking down the same narrow hallways, retracing your steps and making no progress ... Concerned with how people can communicate when options are taken away from them, and how vulnerability can open the door ... Kang's latest isn't a page-turner, and reading it can feel like being suspended in time, or sitting through a very long class, despite the book's slimness. But that's the effect of writing into discomfort ... Kang reaches beyond the usual senses to translate the unspeakable."
