Description 작품 소개
Published in 2003, this novel by Bae Suah is told in 17 separate episodes. The characters do not have much in common except for the fact that they live near a sukiyaki restaurant and are forced to live and cope with different forms of poverty—emotional, intellectual, educational, or financial poverty.
Author Bio 작가 소개
Bae is known for her use of abrupt shifts in tense and perspective, sensitive yet straightforward expressions, and seemingly non sequitur sentences to unsettle and distance her readers. Bae’s works offer neither the reassurance of moral conventions upheld, nor the consolation of adversities rendered meaningful.
There are no expectations.
