ALMOND Paperback

Almond tells the poignant and unique story of Yunjae, a boy born with alexithymia, a condition that makes it difficult for him to feel or recognize emotions. Raised by his loving grandmother and mother who create "emotion lessons" to help him navigate the world, Yunjae's life is forever altered by a violent incident. As he grapples with loss and tries to understand the complex emotions of others, particularly through his unexpected connection with a troubled classmate named Gon, Yunjae embarks on a journey of self-discovery, learning about empathy, connection, and what it truly means to be human in a world that often feels alien to him in Noida.
