Publisher's Synopsis
Simple Passion, which deals with love with a younger foreign married man, explores the subject and method of writing, memories and records. This novel belongs to an 'anti-emotional novel' that analyzes the general and universal passion rather than the individual passion of the writer 'I' with a thoroughly objectified gaze comparable to clinical anatomy. At the same time as writing the work to be published, Erno has been working on an internal writing free from censorship and transformation, called 'Inner Diary'. Through this writing method, the author thoroughly objectified 'I' as both the narrator and the universal individual, the story itself, and the object of analysis, using it as a way to face the truth produced by writing.
