Krátky popis
Translated by Anton Hur'Mesmerising, dreamlike and prescient in its
sharpness and attentiveness to the dynamics between women and the
male and female gaze' Sharlene Teo, author of Ponti'Darkly
beautiful, VIOLETS explores the toll of abandonment and relentless
marginalisation' Frances Cha, author of If I Had Your Face'Violets
lavishes attention on the kind of person who often slips through
the cracks, unseen or ignored. There is a beauty and a bravery in
speaking for small lives' Rowan Hisayo Buchanan, author of Harmless
Like You'Has a way of seeing past the smooth surface of societal
appearance and into the fragile, obscure psychological space that
lies just beneath' Alexandra Kleenman, author of Something New
Under the Sun'An intimate portrait of isolation and unspoken
desire. Darkly poetic, dreamlike and meditative' Adelle Stripe,
author of Black Teeth and a Brilliant SmileSouth Korea, 1970.San is
a lonely child, ostracised from her community. She soon finds a
friend in a girl called Namae, until one afternoon changes
everything. Following a moment of intimacy in a minari field, Namae
violently rejects San, setting her on a troubling path.We next meet
San, aged twenty-two, when she happens upon a job at a flower shop
in Seoul's bustling city centre.Over the course of one hazy,
volatile summer, San is introduced to a curious cast of characters
- the mute shop owner, a brash co-worker, kind farmers and
aggressive customers - and fuelled by a quiet desperation to
jump-start her life, she plunges headfirst into obsession with a
passing magazine photographer. Throughout it all, San's moment with
Namae continues to linger in the back of her mind.A story of
thwarted desire, misogyny and erasure, Violets reveals the high
stakes involved in one woman's desperate search for both autonomy
and attachment in an unforgiving society.
