Please Look After Mom by Kyung-Sook Shin

Elderly Park So-Nyo disappears in the subway of Seoul, Korea.  As the family struggles to find her, we learn of their story through the voices of her daughter, her son, her husband and finally So-Nyo herself.  It is a story of regrets, words unsaid, disappointments, betrayals, and misunderstandings and love unnoticed.  It gives one pause and reason to question just how well we know the people we think we know so well.
