0:57Now PlayingWhen acclaimed author Min Jin Lee quit her job as a corporate lawyer in 1995, she thought her big break as a writer would come quickly. In reality, it would take her 12 years to publish her first book, “Free Food for Millionaires.” Her bestselling novel and National Book Award finalist “Pachinko” came 10 years later in 2017.
“Pachinko” is a sweeping novel that tells the stories of several generations of Koreans living in Japan, and it recently made The Times’s list of the 100 Best Books of the 21st Century. Tap the link in our bio to listen to our full conversation on The Book Review Podcast.
