Description 작품 소개

This short story collection by Kim Taeyong was published in 2007. It includes a total of ten short stories, including “The Third House from the Right,” “Thank You, Gravity,” “Would Rather Love,” “Print,” and the title story. Featuring an elderly man with dementia who believes his dead wife is alive, a man who lusts after his friend’s wife, and a family who keep their dead father inside a bottle, the stories are a reflection on the nature of the broken family and other realities. In particular, the author questions the established order through his repetition of words, leaping prose, and attempts to redefine words.
