The Evening Hero by Marie Myung-Ok Lee

3.0

I loved the idea of this book more than I loved the actual book. I wish the ending were a little more satisfying, and I didn't quite understand the necessity of everything that happens with the protagonist's medical career and his son's business. I loved the historical context of the Korean War, how it tore through the country and separated families, and then how that continued to affect and influence his life. But a lot of extraneous plot details didn't end up paying off.
