The French writer and Nobel Literature laureate J. M. G. Le Clézio is one of the most translated authors in the world and widely considered a living legend of French literature. He also harbors a keen interest in Korea that not only prompted him to learn and master the Korean language on his own but also inspired his new novel. BITNA: UNDER THE SKY OF SEOUL is Le Clézio's portrait of Seoul--its people and its places--rendered with an intimate familiarity and attention to detail that few non-Korean writers, not to mention non-natives of Seoul, could replicate. It is a story of life in the city as it is being lived today.

"In a small south German town, a young girl named Seri is the experiencing bright days of her childhood in the garden of her friend Aya, who comes from a Hungarian artist's family, and Seri lives with her mother in a shack on the outskirts of town. But even the seemingly perfect world of their childhood in the 1960s has an invisible jump: Seri's father died shortly after birth, and Aja's father, who works as a trapeze artist in a circus, only comes once a year to visit. Karl, the common friend of the girls who has lost his younger brother, has left on a bright blue spring day in a foreign car and never came back. They are the mothers who guide Karl by the currents and shoals of their childhood and teach him to have to have no fear of life and to travel to its center."--Cataloger translation of publisher description.

It is the purpose of this book to assemble social psychology information with reference to girls and to present it and the experiences of the writers in nontechnical language in the attempt to give both a point of view and the present status of information on girls. Such discussions seem particularly pertinent at this time. Religious education in the church and character education in the public schools are no longer satisfied, in the one case, with doctrines and creeds and, in the other, with superficial character traits. The molding of personality and character must go deeper than word-of-mouth repetitions of creeds or virtues. To be a secure possession of the adolescent or youth, goodness must be more than unthinking adherence to rules of conduct taught in the classroom. The material in this book is presented in practical and concrete form rather than as abstract theories. The book is not primarily intended as curriculum material which can be used in teaching classes of girls. It is intended as background material for ministers, religious educators, teachers, and those in charge of dubs or connected with girls' organizations who may feel the need for a brief summary of the social psychology of later adolescence. The book is arranged with questions and references at the end of each chapter. Excerpts from case studies and from narratives written by young people are included as illustrative material.
