Beskrivning
Meet Madam Jeong Geum-nam, affectionately known as the Hyehwa-dong Grandma, a self-proclaimed "cool senior" and the owner of the beloved Manna Dosirak.Her dosirak lunchboxes are the best in town but there's something else that makes her restaurant special: the little notes she wraps in silver foil and hides under the rice, like fortune cookies. Notes that make people laugh, cry and bounce back stronger. Little by little, she helps her customers to heal their wounds and find friendship with each other.Her regulars all carry a secret or burden, and Geum-nam's notes, warmth and sunny demeanour help lighten the load. But Geum-nam has secrets of her own, and the time will come when she'll need the support of her customers in return.From bestselling Korea author Kim Jiyun, this is a beautiful ode to the strength in community, the healing power of food, and the resilience of the human spirit.Translated from the Korean by Shanna Tan

Mer om författaren
Kim Ji Yoon was born in 1992 and raised in Seoul. She studied at Dankook University, majoring in creative writing for four years. She also attended the Korean Broadcasting Writers' Association training centre to learn how to write for screen, and later completed a drama course. One day, while walking down the noisy streets of Hongdae at night, she suddenly saw a laundromat with soft yellow lights on, and that gave her the first sentence of Yeonnam-dong's Smiley Laundromat, her first novel. She now writes full time.
