Description: ** 'Masterful ... THE SURRENDERED bursts with drama and human anguish ... Powerful, deeply felt, compulsively readable and imbued with moral gravity, the novel does not peter out into easy redemption. It's a harrowing tale: bleak, haunting and often heart-breaking - and not to be missed' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY ** 'Chang-rae Lee has created such a tour de force that its images and narrative linger for a long time after reading' BOOKSELLER'S CHOICE ** 'A major achievement, and likely to be remembered as one of this year's best books' KIRKUS STARRED REVIEW.
