How does Han Kang use experimental prose?
My approach to language is often driven by the need to articulate experiences that defy ordinary expression. The violence I explore, the deep wounds of history and personal trauma, demand a prose that is not beholden to conventional narrative structures. I use fragmentation, shifts in perspective, and a heightened sensory detail to mirror the fractured nature of memory and the visceral impact of suffering. In 'The White Book,' for instance, the white pages are themselves a part of the narrative, representing absence, loss, and the unspeakable. Silence, and what is left unsaid, becomes a powerful tool to convey the immensity of grief and the un graspable nature of certain realities.
