  1. Pacinko(Pachinko) - is what I call Al Pacino, my favorite male actor.

    I suppose most people will find interest both in the book and in the TV series because of the subject: immigration and immigrants. Its complexity touches almost everybody, in any ethnical society, asian or european.

    1. Yes, for us who speak Slavic languages Pacinko does sound like a pet name for someone you love.
