Klappentext

By the internationally acclaimed author of Cursed Bunny, in another thrilling translation from the Korean by Anton Hur, Your Utopia is full of tales of loss and discovery, idealism and dystopia, death and immortality. "e;Nothing concentrates the mind like Chung's terrors, which will shrivel you to a bouillon cube of your most primal instincts"e; (Vulture), yet these stories are suffused with Chung's inimitable wry humour and surprisingly tender moments, too - often between unexpected subjects.In The Center for Immortality Research , a low-level employee runs herself ragged planning a fancy gala for donors, only to be blamed for a crime she witnessed during the event, under the noses of the mysterious celebrity benefactors hoping to live forever. But she can t be fired no one can. In A Song for Sleep , a tender, one-sided love blooms in the AI-elevator of an apartment complex; as in, the elevator develops a profound affection for one of the residents. In Seeds , we see the final frontier of capitalism s destruction of the planet and the GMO companies who rule the agricultural industry in this bleak future, but nature has ways of creeping back to life.Chung s writing is haunting, funny, gross, terrifying and yet when we reach the end, we just want more (Alexander Chee). If you haven t yet experienced the fruits of this singular imagination, Your Utopia is waiting.
