This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1911 edition. Excerpt: ... V "ONLY A PRINCE OF KOREA" IT was winter. The streets of the city lay snow-laden, glistening in the sunshine, the dull appearance of the houses changed as if by magic to dazzling white under the mantle of " King Snow," whose beautiful gift clothes city and country alike. The city was the capital of the little country long known as the "Hermit Kingdom." Its name was "Seoul " (Soul), the country's name Korea, or the Land of the Morning Calm, as the ancients called it. Much of interest might be told of this quaint old city, with its peculiar looking white-clad people and'funny straw-or tileroofed houses, but this'story is not of the country, not of the city, not of the people as a whole, but of one small lad, who was born in the palace of Korea, to the emperor of Korea, about nine years before this twentyfourth of December, nineteen hundred and years after the birth of our Lord. Not that this little prince knew that it was December 24, 19--. Not he; he was but a little boy, born in heathenism, who knew not the year of our Lord--a boy very much out of humour with the day. It had been decidedly stupid that day. The snow was everywhere; he was only allowed to roam in his various apartments and to go outside on the walls; of course, always attended by those three officials, his special guards, dressed according to rank in various fantastic silken garments. They were a nuisance; sometimes there were more of them, and then the three men who always cared for him were a bother anyway. If he went near the walls they told him that he would get his green silk "tur-a-mack-i" (coat) wet with the snow, and if he stepped out of the path, they said his silken shoes would be spoiled: it was a nuisance to be a prince. There had been a time when he had been...

‘Funny, emotional and deeply inspiring, this is perfect for anyone wanting to break out of their comfort zone’ Heat What would happen if a shy introvert lived as an out-and-out extrovert for one year? Jessica Pan is about to find out... * When she found herself jobless and friendless, sitting in the familiar Jess-shaped crease on her sofa, she couldn't help but wonder what life might have looked like if she had been a little more open to new experiences and new people, a little less attached to going home instead of going to the pub. So, she made a vow: to push herself to live the life of an extrovert for a year. She wrote a list: improv, a solo holiday and... talking to strangers on the tube. She regretted it instantly. Sorry I'm Late, I Didn't Want to Come follows Jess's hilarious and painful year of misadventures in extroverting, reporting back from the frontlines for all the introverts out there. But is life actually better or easier for the extroverts? Or is it the nightmare Jess always thought it would be? * ‘In a world of self-care and nights in, this book will inspire and remind you to do some things that scare you every so often.’ Emma Gannon ‘Tender, courageous and extremely funny, this book will make us all braver.’ Daisy Buchanan ‘A chronicle of Pan’s hilarious and painful year of being an extrovert.’ Stylist

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the indie rock sensation known as Japanese Breakfast, an unforgettable memoir about family, food, grief, love, and growing up Korean American—“in losing her mother and cooking to bring her back to life, Zauner became herself” (NPR). • CELEBRATING OVER ONE YEAR ON THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER LIST In this exquisite story of family, food, grief, and endurance, Michelle Zauner proves herself far more than a dazzling singer, songwriter, and guitarist. With humor and heart, she tells of growing up one of the few Asian American kids at her school in Eugene, Oregon; of struggling with her mother's particular, high expectations of her; of a painful adolescence; of treasured months spent in her grandmother's tiny apartment in Seoul, where she and her mother would bond, late at night, over heaping plates of food. As she grew up, moving to the East Coast for college, finding work in the restaurant industry, and performing gigs with her fledgling band--and meeting the man who would become her husband--her Koreanness began to feel ever more distant, even as she found the life she wanted to live. It was her mother's diagnosis of terminal cancer, when Michelle was twenty-five, that forced a reckoning with her identity and brought her to reclaim the gifts of taste, language, and history her mother had given her. Vivacious and plainspoken, lyrical and honest, Zauner's voice is as radiantly alive on the page as it is onstage. Rich with intimate anecdotes that will resonate widely, and complete with family photos, Crying in H Mart is a book to cherish, share, and reread.
