Bruce Lee: Letters of the Dragon is a fascinating glimpse of the private Bruce Lee behind the public image—a man with the patience and concern to dedicate as much effort to crafting a thoughtful personal answer to the letter of a young fan as to those from his old friends and associates; an extremely active man never too busy to make time for an old family friend in need of simple companionship; a man who never wrote without careful thought, and never thought from the head alone, but always from the head and heart together.

En este libro luminoso y poliédrico, el primero desde que le fue concedido el Premio Nobel de Literatura, Han Kang entreteje los hilos de su obra y de su vida, y traza las conexiones entre su mundo interior y el exterior a través de una secuencia de ensayos, poemas y diarios. Un libro de reflexiones, de palabras y de luz, que tiene en su centro el pequeño jardín del patio de su casa, orientado al norte y donde todo crece gracias únicamente a los rayos de sol reflejados por unos espejos que la autora debe ir moviendo durante el día, a medida que la Tierra gira sobre su eje.

Un relato ameno, personal, a ratos irónico, pero siempre único, de nuestra accidentada historia a través de los siglos. Una obra concebida por el autor para, en palabras suyas, «divertirme, releer y disfrutar; un pretexto para mirar atrás desde los tiempos remotos hasta el presente, reflexionar un poco sobre ello y contarlo por escrito de una manera poco ortodoxa.»
