Let me tell you, this short stories collection by South Korean author Bora Chung will MESS your brain.

I enjoyed the writing and the coherence of the short stories, while being independent of one another and very unique, they still present some common themes as well as a cohesive narrative style. 

Do not expect anything cute, these short stories are disturbing from the beginning till the end, and honestly, even if I finished this read so long ago and just now writing the review, some images from the book live rent-free in my head - and nightmares. 

Bora Chung not only plays with the human mind, but also with society's constructions and stereotypes, specifically about women, while also proving a master of shaping reality to create imaginative, weird, and disturbing new ones.
