The Island of Sea Women

I read this in my family's book club and really enjoyed it. It's historical fiction, based in Korea during and post WWII, centered around women divers. Just to warn you it is quite dark (but then so is the history..)

It's fun! It's the aunties and girl cousins and my mom. Half the time half of us don't even read the book.
