An unusual, intriguing and sensual novel by the winner of the Man Booker International Prize.
Korean writer Han Kang’s The Vegetarian is difficult to define – it’s the story of a woman who becomes a vegetarian, and soon begins to turn into … a plant. This inner and external metamorphosis of the protagonist is fascinating but also horrific to the people around her, turning their lives upside down. This is an upsetting story of one of the most fascinating South Korean authors.
