Description

A tradition-bound mother finds her quiet life upended when her adult daughter, Green, moves back home with her girlfriend. The mother, who has centered her life around her late husband and daughter, struggles to accept Green's chosen family, creating a profound generational and ideological schism. This prize-winning debut novel, elegantly translated from Korean, explores the complex facets of familial love, duty, and the evolving definitions of family in the face of mortality and societal change.
