对放纵欲望的残酷性和忽视欲望的致命性进行了奇特而痛苦的温柔探索... 精美绝伦 "艾米尔-麦克布莱德（Eimear McBride

Yeong-hye 和她的丈夫都是普通人--尽职尽责的妻子和温文尔雅的上班族。

有一天，Yeong-hye 在噩梦的驱使下决定吃素。

但在素食几乎闻所未闻、社会风气被严格遵守的韩国，这是一种令人震惊的颠覆行为。

Yeong-hye 的被动反叛迅速以更加怪异和可怕的形式表现出来，

从性虐待狂到自杀未遂，以及越来越色情和疯狂的艺术作品，同时她也在自己的幻想中越陷越深......

素食者》是一部关于现代韩国的启示性小说，

讲述了一个关于羞耻、欲望和我们试图理解他人的动摇努力的故事，令人不安，又美轮美奂。

'A strange, painfully tender exploration of the brutality of desire indulged and the fatality of desire ignored... Exquisite' Eimear McBride

Yeong-hye and her husband are ordinary people - dutiful wife and mild-mannered office worker. One day, prompted by grotesque recurring nightmares, Yeong-hye decides to become a vegetarian. But in South Korea, where vegetarianism is almost unheard-of and societal mores are strictly obeyed, it is a shocking act of subversion.

Yeong-hye's passive rebellion rapidly manifests in ever more bizarre and frightening forms, from sexual sadism to attempted suicide, and in increasingly erotic and unhinged artworks, as all the while she spirals further into her fantasies...

Disturbing and beautiful by turns, The Vegetarian is a revelatory novel about modern day South Korea; a tale of shame, desire and our faltering attempts to understand others.
