Sinopsis

Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982 follows one woman's psychic deterioration in the face of rampant misogyny. In a tidy apartment on the outskirts of Seoul, millennial "everywoman" Kim Jiyoung spends her days caring for her infant daughter. But strange symptoms appear: Jiyoung begins to impersonate the voices of other women, dead and alive. As she plunges deeper into this psychosis, her concerned husband sends her to a psychiatrist. Jiyoung narrates her story to this doctor-from her birth to parents who expected a son to elementary school teachers who policed girls' outfits to male coworkers who installed hidden cameras in women's restrooms. But can her psychiatrist cure her, or even discover what truly ails her?

    Podría parecer la vida común de una mujer en la Corea del Sur actual, sin embargo, su trama, al incluir las voces de las mujeres del pasado, adquiere un nuevo tono que universaliza las preguntas de la protagonista.«Ni siquiera yo sé si me casaré o si tendré hijos. O puede que me muera antes. ¿Por qué tengo que renunciar a lo que quiero ser o hacer por un futuro que no sé si lle...

    Mavis Gallant’s extraordinary mastery of the short story remains insufficiently recognized. She may be the best writer of stories since the early-1950s prime of John Cheever, Eudora Welty, and Flannery O’Connor, and even in such august company, her work is sui generis. Gallant’s short fiction refines the art of the story even as it expands the boundaries of what a story can be....
