About This Book
Veteran novelist Park Bum-shin has released a new work that deals with a
provocative story. The novel revolves around a note left by Lee Jeok-yo,
a revered poet who died a year earlier. The note includes shocking
secrets about the poet, who loved a 17-year-old girl named Han Eun-gyo
and killed Seo Ji-woo, his pupil and author.
The lawyer faces a dilemma whether to make the note public in accordance
with the poet’s last wish or keep it a secret since it might cause a
huge stir, as the literature community prepares for the first
anniversary of his death. The lawyer meets the girl and finds out what
happened between these three people.
The poet was fascinated by Eun-gyo’s youthful beauty while Seo began
obsessing with Eun-gyo as he noticed his mentor’s feelings toward her.
The relation between Lee and Seo disintegrates because of Eun-gyo. Lee
is caught up with feelings of a sense of inferiority and jealousy and
humiliation toward Seo. The novel explores the inner desires of human
beings and obsessions beyond a typical love story.
