About This Book
Since her literary debut with the publication of her novella Our
Abscission Layer in the quarterly Segye-ui Munhak (World Literature) in
1982, Lee Hye-kyong has slowly but firmly established herself as a
representative woman author by portraying the dark corners of life with
warmth and sensitivity. This latest collection will regale and deeply
move readers with its variations on the authors aesthetics, with its
lingering aftereffect. In particular, this volume is characterized by a
deeper sense of realism and greater scrutiny of the sorrows of modern
man through a variety of themes and personages. With migrant workers,
networkers practically glued to telephone lines, small town home
appliance mechanics, tour guides, and hypermarket security guards as
protagonists, the stories in this volume evince the authors strong wish
to delve into and to soothe the lives of people today, cracked open with
unfulfilled desire.
