Overview

2019 Winner of Bologna Ragazzi Awards Special Mention for Fiction (Russian) Красивые и лиричные иллюстрации воссоздают художественный мир произведений детского писателя Квон Чонсэна, в котором самое неприглядное оказывается самым ценным.

Book Intro

 

 (English) The Moon Over the Apple Orchard

This book depicts through beautiful and lyrical brush strokes the literary world of the late Kwon Jung-saeng, who believed that the humblest beings were the noblest. Presenting Piljun and his mother, who lead lives of goodness without blaming anyone for their illness and poverty, this book speaks about hope and joy that still shine bright, like the moon, even amidst a sorrowful reality. By providing a new interpretation for the tale, with a focus on conveying consolation to the protagonist’s mother as both a mother and a woman, painter Yoon Mi-sook’s illustrations make the story all the more moving. Regarding the book, the Ragazzi Award Jury stated, “we were delighted by the affecting atmosphere of this picture book, which depicts everyday life in a rural community. The mixed-media illustrations show loving gestures, hardship, poverty, disease and care for the elderly. In detailed scenes of the natural landscape and agricultural work, the illustrations show the richness and fragility of life.”

About the Author

Kwon Jeong-saeng



(Russian) Детский писатель Квон Чонсэн (1937-2007, настоящее имя Квон Кёнсу) родился в Токио и перебрался в Корею сразу после её освобождения от колониальной зависимости. Он жил в небольшом глиняном доме в уезде Андон провинции Северная Кёнсан и работал звонарём в деревенской церкви. Он прожил жизнь в бедности и болезни и писал о природе, жизни и красоте слабых и обречённых на тяготы и страдания. Писатель оставил после себя более 150 романов и коротких рассказов и более 100 детских стихотворений и песен.

 

(English) Kwon Jung-saeng (M) was born in Tokyo, but returned to Korea immediately after liberation from Japanese colonial rule (1945). Working as a bell ringer in a small village, he made his debut as a children's story writer in an annual literary competition. Knowing illness and poverty throughout his life, Kwon wrote beautifully about the beauty of nature, life, and those who suffered because of their fragility.
