In a tidy apartment on the outskirts of Seoul, millennial “everywoman” Kim Jiyoung spends her days caring for her infant daughter. But strange symptoms appear: Jiyoung begins to impersonate the voices of other women, dead and alive. As she plunges deeper into this psychosis, her concerned husband sends her to a psychiatrist. Jiyoung narrates her story to this doctor—from her birth to parents who expected a son to elementary school teachers who policed girls’ outfits to male coworkers who installed hidden cameras in women’s restrooms. But can her psychiatrist cure her, or even discover what truly ails her? “A social treatise as well as a work of art” (Alexandra Alter, New York Times), Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982 heralds the arrival of international powerhouse Cho Nam-Joo.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 211mmItem Length: 140mmItem Width: 13mmItem Weight: 148gTranslator: Jamie ChangContributor: Jamie Chang (Translated by)Genre: FictionAuthor: Cho Nam-jooRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
