Park's memoir tops best
A Chinese-language memoir by President Park Geun-hye was at the top of the autobiography list compiled by China's largest online bookstore for September and October, according to the store on Wednesday.
The autobiography, titled "Despair Trains Me and Hope Moves Me," was first published in 2007 and translated into Chinese in 2013.
The data compiled by the Chinese online bookstore, dangdang.com, showed that Park's memoir topped the list of sales on the biographies chart for the past two months.
Citing data by a publishing industry research institute Openbook, the state-run Global Times newspaper, which is published by the Chinese Communist Party, also reported on Tuesday that Park's memoir was among the top 10 non-fiction books in October.
The memoir has gained steady popularity in China. The book's Chinese publisher said about 800,000 copies were estimated to have been sold so far, but an exact sales figure will be released in January.
Known for her self-taught Mandarin and interest in Chinese culture, Park has used her diplomatic resources to bolster ties with China with the aim of helping address North Korea's nuclear standoff. (Yonhap)
