Overview

From the mountains of ancient Korea come twenty unforgettable tales - of clever rabbits and fearsome tigers, greedy brothers and generous hearts, mischievous goblins and ordinary people who outwit them all. These are the stories that Korean grandparents have told their grandchildren for centuries. They are still quoted in conversation, cited in classrooms, and referenced in everyday life across Korea today - a living tradition of humor, wisdom, and warmth that has shaped one of Asia's most vibrant cultures. Translated into natural, vivid English and accompanied by notes on Korean proverbs, cultural terms, and storytelling traditions, Tigers and Tricksters is an ideal introduction to Korean folklore for readers of all ages - and a warm homecoming for anyone who already knows these tales by heart.
