Winner of the 2016 Booker Prize. Before the nightmares
began, Yeong-hye and her husband lived an ordinary, controlled
life. But the dreams—invasive images of blood and
brutality—torture her, driving Yeong-hye to purge her mind and
renounce eating meat altogether. It’s a small act of
independence, but it interrupts her marriage and sets into
motion an increasingly grotesque chain of events at home. A
beautiful, unsettling novel about rebellion and taboo, violence
and eroticism, and the twisting metamorphosis of a soul.
Characters: 21. Amazon rating: 4 stars. Genre: Fiction.
