[New Release] 'Eoneu Nal Mom Bakk-euro Nagan Yeojaneun' View original image


◆A Woman Who One Day Left Her Body= This is the fourth work by writer Jeong A-eun, known as an "observer of urban customs," who meticulously depicts headhunters, parents pursuing education, aspiring drama writers, and plastic surgeons in works such as "Modern Heart," "People of Jamsil-dong," and "Love with a Bare Face." Centered on the theme of "gender," the novel explores various subjects such as the female body, sexual agency, motherhood, and intersex from the perspective of Ihwa-i, a housewife with a husband and two daughters.


For reference, the simultaneously published "I Entered That Man's House" views the same situation from a different perspective through the eyes of literary critic Kim Ji-sung. In each novel, the counterpart protagonist appears as a supporting character, adding interest to the story. The author recommends reading "I Entered That Man's House" first, followed by "A Woman Who One Day Left Her Body."
