A review by isabellita
I Have the Right to Destroy Myself by Young-Ha Kim

4.0

Very weird but interesting book. It analyses death and life poetically and cynically. It made me reflect on many things. I also enjoyed the connection with art and music. I looked up all the painting and songs mentioned and felt that I was with the characters.
The novel poses the question: If humans desire life, couldn’t they also desire death, which is a part of life? Can’t our desires advance beyond life and reach the realm of death?
