'금수회의록 (Geum-su-Hue-I-Lok) Assembly of Animals' Summary
Assembly of Animals commences with an extraordinary event: animals from all corners of the globe assemble for a grand meeting, seeking to deliberate upon the pressing issues facing the human world. A diverse cast of creatures, from the wise old fox to the cunning wolf, the eloquent parrot to the humble donkey, engage in lively debates and discussions. Through these animalistic voices, the author, Guk-seon Ahn, cleverly unveils the shortcomings and absurdities of human society, casting a critical eye on its social stratification, political corruption, and moral hypocrisy. The animals, with their unvarnished perspectives and unyielding honesty, expose the flaws in human behavior, challenging prevailing norms and societal structures. Assembly of Animals stands as a testament to the power of satire and allegory, offering a timeless critique of human nature and society while also underscoring the importance of resisting oppression and striving for a more just and equitable world.Book Details
