A haunting story with beautiful prose to explore the long felt traumas of war and state violence. Incredibly moving, and difficult to read. Especiall given that those things are being shown on my social media and still happening to people right now. I wonder how it reads in it's original Korean. Hang deserves all the praise she gets. I will be thinking about this for a long time.
