TRANSLATED BY DEBORAH SMITH

YEONG-HYE AND HER HUSBAND ARE ORDINARY PEOPLE. HE IS AN OFFICE WORKER WITH MODERATE AMBITIONS AND MILD MANNERS; SHE IS AN UNINSPIRED BUT DUTIFUL WIFE. THE ACCEPTABLE FLATLINE OF THEIR MARRIAGE IS INTERRUPTED WHEN YEONG-HYE, SEEKING A MORE 'PLANT-LIKE' EXISTENCE, DECIDES TO BECOME A VEGETARIAN, PROMPTED BY GROTESQUE RECURRING NIGHTMARES. IN SOUTH KOREA, WHERE VEGETARIANISM IS ALMOST UNHEARD-OF AND SOCIETAL MORES ARE STRICTLY OBEYED, YEONG-HYE'S DECISION IS A SHOCKING ACT OF SUBVERSION. HER PASSIVE REBELLION MANIFESTS IN EVER MORE BIZARRE AND FRIGHTENING FORMS, LEADING HER BLAND HUSBAND TO SELF-JUSTIFIED ACTS OF SEXUAL SADISM. HIS CRUELTIES DRIVE HER TOWARDS ATTEMPTED SUICIDE AND HOSPITALISATION. SHE UNKNOWINGLY CAPTIVATES HER SISTER'S HUSBAND, A VIDEO ARTIST. SHE BECOMES THE FOCUS OF HIS INCREASINGLY EROTIC AND UNHINGED ARTWORKS, WHILE SPIRALLING FURTHER AND FURTHER INTO HER FANTASIES OF ABANDONING HER FLESHLY PRISON AND BECOMING - IMPOSSIBLY, ECSTATICALLY - A TREE.

FRAUGHT, DISTURBING AND BEAUTIFUL, THE VEGETARIAN IS A NOVEL ABOUT MODERN DAY SOUTH KOREA, BUT ALSO A NOVEL ABOUT SHAME, DESIRE AND OUR FALTERING ATTEMPTS TO UNDERSTAND OTHERS, FROM ONE IMPRISONED BODY TO ANOTHER.
