2.0
The short stories in this collection were translated by Ahn Jeonghyo (안정효) and James B. Lee. This particular book is out of print, and incredibly difficult to find anywhere, whether online, in libraries, or even at bookstores (god knows I've tried). Even WorldCat doesn't have much of anything on it, which is saying a lot. Even the Dalkey Archive Press website doesn't list the book any more, even though it was published as recently as 2016.
Several of the works included (allegedly) in this book, "Wings," "Encounters and Departures," and "Boredom," have been previously published in other collections. Ahn Jeonghyo's translation of "Wings" (『날개』) was published in The Wings along with Lee's translation of "Encounters and Departures" (『봉별기』 逢別記) and "Deathly Child" (『동해』 童骸). "Boredom" (『권태』 倦怠) has only been published in translation by Kim Myong-Hee (김명희) in Crow's Eye View and by Heinz Insu Fenkl in Azalea no. 4 (as "Ennui").
