[Writers in Conversation] Still Writing Novels in the Netflix Era
Nowadays, flashy images play on an endless loop in the palms of our hands, yet there are still people who cannot peel their eyes away from the neat, printed type on the page. How do letters that never change colors or dance around manage to fill our minds with technicolor images? That may be the magic generated by the written word. Is it the charm of the characters who seem to be living, breathing people that captivates us? Is it a tightly woven narrative net? Isn’t it that writers imbue real magic in between the lines to enchant their readers? Each flat sheet of paper expands into an infinite space. Three storytellers of our generation will illuminate their secrets together. Patrick deWitt’s sharp humor, Hwang Yeo Jung’s detailed ruminations, and Kang Ji-young’s clear grasp on things will fascinate readers. Chase after the secrets behind those hours once spent turning pages with bated breath all night long. • Language: Korean, English
