A review by carlageek
The Cabinet by Un-su Kim

4.0

“That there is no moral of the story – that’s the moral of the story.”

Surreal and imaginative, The Cabinet starts out as a strange, quirky, and funny compendium of people with odd ailments, abilities, afflictions, or habits. But allegorical meaning accrues over the course of the book, and by the end a dark metaphor emerges for the disaffection and isolation of modern life.

I really couldn’t describe the book better than my Goodreads friend Alwynne has, so do go and read that review:
