Richard Hooker: M*A*S*H

MASH(Cassell, 2004)(Originally published in 1968)

Fun, easy-to-read stories about the army surgical hospitals in the Korean War. Each of the chapters feels as if it’s tailor-made for an episode of a TV series (funny, that). As a Brit, I sometimes find I need a dictionary to translate some of the Americanisms (and I start skim-reading when they’re talking in any detail about American football) but overall I guess this is a must-read piece of Korean-related literature.
