A Thousand Blues
A Thousand Blues | By Cheon Seon-ran | Translated by Chi-Young Kim
2035: In the shadow of a race-course, two sisters grow up, helping their mother at the local cafe that serves renowned ramen. Family life is fractious especially when one of them loses their day-job to an automaton.
When the sisters discover their beloved race-horse Today is being sent to the knacker's yard after a lifetime of over-racing, they are determined to rescue her.
To remind Today of happier times, they hatch a plan to let her run one last race. But it will be no ordinary event.
They will train her to run the slowest race of her life.
Narrated by a most unusual and unforgettable storyteller, A Thousand Blues is a powerful hymn to our humanity.
