“What I mean is you may have had your wars, I’m sure there are scars on your beaches, but that’s all in the past. Our beaches are still waiting for the end of a war that’s been going on for so long people have stopped believing it’s real. They build hotels, put up neon signs, but it’s all fake, we’re on a knife-edge, it could all give way any moment. We’re living in limbo. In a winter that never ends.”

this book was okay.
the whole setting and the way in which it was described was really easy to picture, but i think that's the only thing that was done above average.
i hate books that don't end 'properly' and this book definitely leaves you speculating what happened next.
there were definitely things that were mentioned consistently that i thought had no further elaboration, and were just put in to spice up the story that would have otherwise been pretty boring. these definitely served no ultimate purpose to me.
there is also the implication of the protagonist having an eating disorder, which i wasn't expecting from this book.
definitely mid to me.

It was a very easy read, but I didn’t enjoy it as much as I thought I would. However, it definitely made me interested in Sokcho.
tunnelmaltaan niin aidon tuntunen, niinku tän kirjailijan vladivostok circus jonka luin joskus aikasemmin. sokcho on turistikaupunki kesäsin, mut talvella siellä on vaan tyhjää ja kylmää. tunsin itteni palelemassa sokchossa, maistelemassa erilaisia mereneläviä ja pohtimassa pohjois-korean rajaa. hieno teos, mutta en usko että tän miljöö jää kuitenkaan kovin vahvasti mieleen
