'Stunning ... Lee is a master at storytelling' Lyn Liao Butler, author of Red Thread of Fate

'Fantastically original doesn't begin to describe this exhilarating, globe-spanning, decade-hopping masterpiece.

'An unforgettable character and a bold, inventive narrative that takes us through history. Astonishing, compassionate and ambitious' Krys Lee, author of How I Became a North Korean

'Unflinching and tender, philosophical and mischievous, this playful novel conveys a sense of Korea's turbulent twentieth century through a charming, compelling protagonist who is not always a reliable narrator but who tells the truths that matter.
