Book Description
Second in the extraordinary manga series “that is part fantasy, part horror and entirely intriguing . . . Park’s artwork is stellar (Publishers Weekly). Meet Aaron, an accidental werewolf with a painful past of abuse and abandonment, seeking an answer to his problem. He decides to take a position as an assistant with Pamela at the Tarot Café while he searches for a solution. A glimpse into Pamela’s life before the Tarot Café is laden with prejudice and persecution. Seven hundred years ago, Pamela’s mother made the ultimate sacrifice for her daughter . . . but even now, is the fear that doomed her mother really gone? Praise for The Tarot Café series “The black-and-white manga-style illustrations are clear and expressive and fully complement the text, and the tarot cards are interestingly drawn. As each one is turned over, its meaning is explained. The stories are mostly about adults, but they will appeal to older teens as they move quickly and are engrossing.” —School Library Journal “The stories are suitably creepy in a gothic, Twilight Zone-ish way . . . The artwork really makes this manga stand above the crowd.” —Booklist

Transnational Encounters between Germany and Korea
Author: Joanne Miyang Cho
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1349952249
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
This book examines the history of the German-Korean relationship from the late nineteenth to the twenty-first century, focusing on the nations’ varied encounters with each other during the last years of the Yi dynasty, the Japanese occupation of Korea, the Cold War, and the post-Cold War era. With essays from a range of internationally respected scholars, this collection moves between history, diplomacy, politics, education, migration, literature, cinema, and architecture to uncover historical and cultural intersections between Germany and Korea. Each nation has navigated the challenges of modernity in different ways, and yet traditional East-West dichotomies belie the deeper affinities between them. This book points to those affinities, focusing in particular on the past and present internal divisions that perhaps make Germany and Korea as similar as Germany and Japan.
