GRASS

I n f o r m a t i o n

»Grass (Korean: 풀, Pul) is a 2017 Korean-language graphic novel by Keum Suk Gendry-Kim.
It is about Ok-sun a.k.a. "Granny Lee", a woman who had been a "comfort woman" in World War II, returning to live in Korea. Alison Mandaville of California State University, Fresno wrote that it is "An oral history in comics form". A version of Gendry-Kim is in the story and tries to record an oral history of Ok-sun.« (Extract from: Wikipedia)
