Synopsis
This is a new edition of a classic and long unavailable text by Younghill Kang, the first Korean-American novelist. Younghill Kang was born in 1903 in what is now North Korea and arrived in New York in 1921. He continued his studies at Harvard and built a name for himself as a scholar of literature and Asian culture and as an author. His fiction was admired by, among others, Pearl S. Buck, H.G. Wells and Thomas Wolfe. Originally published in 1937, East Goes West met with widespread acclaim despite its biting portraits of racism, alienation and hypocrisy at every level of American society. This eagerly anticipated edition includes informative appendices detailing the author's life and writings, including primary source materials that provide insight into the relationship between Kang and his editor, Maxwell Perkins.

    Seller sent the wrong book, i contacted then to tell this and they didnt apologize once in all the messages. Treated me as if i had made the mistake and only partially refunded me, would not accept a return as it would have cost them too much apparently but didnt refund me the postage so im out over £20 ($22) for a book i didnt want! Worst seller i have ever dealt with, curt and rude and i have purchased over 3000 items on ebay so that is saying something!! Terrible seller

    Never received book very poor communication. I do not want to contact seller do not have the time. If they just cancel the order, they should have offered a better answer than cancelled and then a generalized reason and a sorry.
