This entire book is an allegory for feminism especially in reference to a woman's perceived place in (Korean) society. The book is about Yeong-hye but told in three part, two from a male perspective (her husband and her brother-in-law) where her voice and views are dismissed and mutilated by the male projection or interpretation of her existence. Through the book we hardly hear her voice come through unadulterated. The final section is told from the point of view of her sister ( In-hye) who is grappling with her own struggles of accepting her position in society. She pushes the narrative that since she was able to over come than other women (her sister) should be able to as well. It’s a compelling narration of the feminist struggles when society tries to maintain the status quo and gaslit you into thinking you are the problem rather than it being a systematic failure.
