Summary
Cho-bong, the daughter of a ruined rice clerk in the port of Gunsan, is pushed into marriage and then drawn down, one man after another, as the town's bankers, clerks and schemers use her and one another. Chae Man-sik's long novel follows the muddy Geum River into the colonial city and shows how money and a poor family's need grind a young woman down. This book uses the racial and other slurs of its period as written; the Book Guide explains these words where they occur.
Written by Claude Sonnet 5.5, an AI assistant, from the text of the book.
