Vegetarian

About this book

Yonghye and her husband belong to the common people. While the desires of the office worker husband are simple and the behavior is unremarkable, the life of the dutiful wife is monotonous. But when Yonghye suddenly rebelled in his desire to live a 'vegetative' life, the simple line of the couple was broken. His rebellion begins to take a more strange and tragic shape. Looking for freedom from the prison of her own body, Yonghye's dreams become darker. He has an impossible frenzy - to become a tree! The vegetarian is a beautiful and mind-blowing novel written in three volumes about rebellion and prohibition, violence and sexuality and the complex transformation of the self.
