Descrição do Produto
''Holding on to the belief that life had meaning and must go on, I, too, would carry on.''
In this million-copy bestseller from Korea, the owner of a corner store takes in a homeless man who does a good deed – a kind soul whose presence will transform the whole neighbourhood.
Seoul Station is home to Dokgo, a man with no memories of his past. Until one day his subdued existence is disrupted when he stumbles upon a lost wallet, triggering a chain of events that will change the course of his life.
Enter Mrs. Yeom, a retired teacher turned convenience-store owner, who, upon discovering Dokgo''s act of kindness in returning her purse, offers him a meal as a token of her gratitude. Their chance encounter blossoms into an unexpected alliance when the man’s bravery saves the store from ruin, earning him not just a job but a place in the heart of the neighbourhood.
But just when things are looking up for Dokgo, Mrs. Yeom''s troubled son, eager to sell the store, hires a detective to dig into the mysterious man''s past and unearth what he seems to be trying so hard to forget . . .
The Second Chance Convenience Store is a moving and joyful story of a woman fighting for her community and a man who has lost everything except the will to try again.
''Dok-go''s realistic and encouraging relationship with the store''s customers, who have their problems and aspirations resolved so well through the pages, wins everyone''s hearts'' -The Korea Times
