Orange and the Bread Knife: The Chilling Korean Bestseller - where one woman decides she has had ENOUGH

Autor Cheong Ye Traducere de Slin Jung
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 iun 2026
The thrilling high-concept Korean bestseller about conforming to society's standards.

HAPPINESS IS ALWAYS A CHOICE

Youngah is a warm-hearted schoolteacher - always smiling, always yielding. She bends her life to everyone else's rules. But deep inside, this endless restraint is killing her. An unending sense of despair festers.
Desperate for relief, she turns to a cutting-edge, four-week emotion regulation programme, which promises to sculpt her into a better version of herself.
The procedure works a little too well.
Unburdened at last, Youngah embraces her raw, unfiltered self, dismantling the weight of the exhausting expectations and ideals imposed upon her.
WHO WOULD EVER CRAWL BACK WHEN FREEDOM FEELS THIS GOOD?
** Translated from the Korean by Slin Jung **

Recenzii

Cheong Ye's savage, feverish hacking at the uncomfortably messy line between selflessness and selfishness, in Slin Jung's knife-sharp translation.
I inhaled this strange, brave, beautifully translated book in just two days, relishing the sadistic pleasure the protagonist feels from everything suddenly turning inside-out after a lifetime spent trying to meet the relentless demands of an impossible world. Truly captivating.
