In Barcelona, a woman is tasked with spying on a prizefighter who may or may not be her estranged son. In the Edo Period, a samurai escorts an orphan to his countrymen. In upstate New York, a formerly incarcerated man starts a new life in a small town and attempts to build a family.  From award-winning author Paul Yoon,  The Hive and the Honey  is a bold and indelible collection that portrays the vastness and complexity of diasporic communities, with each story bringing to light the knotty inheritances of their characters.

A collection laced with beauty and cruelty,  The Hive and the Honey  is the work of an author writing at the very height of his powers.","brand":"Book Grocer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48767004377307,"sku":"9781398530508-RETAIL","price":28.04,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/2994f74f-a5c0-4865-8ea8-0d4ff234fdd0.jpg?v=1778614019","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9781398530508-retail-the-hive-and-the-honey","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
