Pachinko byMin Jin LeePachinko follows one Korean family through the generations,
beginning in early 1900s Korea with Sunja, the prized daughter of
a poor yet proud family, whose unplanned pregnancy threatens to
shame them all. Deserted by her lover, Sunja is saved when a young tubercular minister offers to marry and bring her to Japan. So begins
a sweeping saga of an exceptional family in exile from its homeland
and caught in the indifferent arc of history.
