I've been eager to continue expanding my understanding of Asian heritage and traditions through literature, and I've always appreciated how books like Pachinko offer a personal glimpse into experiences that shape cultural identity.

Pachinko is also a New York Times bestseller and a National Book Award finalist, which is a testament to its cultural resonance. I've always believed that understanding diverse perspectives is vital for effective leadership, and stories like these remind me of the importance of listening, learning, and connecting wit"
