i really enjoyed this! it's really not what i thought it would be, but i enjoyed the three parts to it, and it was a lil freaky book which is the ones i gravitate to i suppose. i need to read more han kang, and i definitely recommend this!

I really enjoyed this book - I feel like it picked up upon a woman’s desire to be in and with nature. It depicts the struggles women face in relationships and the cruelty that might lie beneath. However, there are some points that I didn’t particularly like. Especially the last chapter did not really fit in my opinion. Other than that, I enjoyed the concept.
