Maybe don’t trust the Easter Bunny this year… 

🐰Cursed Bunny contains 10 short stories that won my heart with their creativity and defiance of genre norms. Each story is grounded in reality, no matter how surreal or fantastical it gets. They uncover the ruthless oppression of social norms and the violence humans are capable of when given the opportunity. 

🐰In Bora Chung’s twisted universe, anything goes. Here, enchanted bunnies become karma representatives. Ghosts are merciless, even when they smile. A fox bleeding gold cannot satisfy the insatiable greed of a man. Growing old in a society that only treasures youth or getting pregnant are fears that manifest themselves in grotesque ways. Artificial companions take revenge on their superficial masters. Human sacrifices please the gods… 

🐰The writing, the impeccable translation, the layers of each story. Cursed Bunny is a delicious treat. If you are a fan of mind-bending horror, pick it up!
