A short story collection that explores Korean American womanhood, bodies, animals, and transformation as a means of survival. Equal parts fantastical–a pair of talking dolls help twins escape a stifling home, a heart boils on the stove as part of an elaborate cure for melancholy, a fox demon contemplates avenging her sister’s death–and true to life–a mother and daughter try to heal their rift when the daughter falls unexpectedly pregnant, a woman reexamines her father’s legacy after his death–the stories in this collection are hopeful and heartbreaking, full of danger and full of joy. Chung is a master at capturing emotion, and her characters–human and otherwise–will claw their way into your heart and make themselves at home.
