Publisher's Synopsis
When truth is more gruesome than fiction - Ha Seong-nan is there. When people give in to their most intrustive thoughts - Ha Seong-nan is there. When man is more animal than animals themselves - Ha Seong-nan is there. In Wafers, her third short story collection to appear in English, Ha continues to weave troublesome coincidences into the seemingly banal in her signature style of engrossing and unsettling prose. A best-seller in Korea, Ha Seong-nan is one of the stars of contemporary fiction, writing edgy, socially conscious stories that bring to mind the novels of Han Kang and the film Parasite.
