Sunme Yoon Livres

Yunjae was born with a brain condition called Alexithymia that makes it hard for him to feel emotions like fear or anger. He lives with his mother and grandmother above their used bookstore, decorated with colorful post-it notes that remind him when to smile, when to say "thank you," and when to laugh. When a shocking act of random violence shatters his world, it leaves him alone and on his own. Yunjae retreats into silent isolation, until troubled teenager Gon arrives at his school and begins to bully Yunjae. After learning they have more in common than they realized, the two strike up a surprising friendship. -- adapted from jacket

Une nuit, Yonghye se réveille et va au réfrigérateur, qu'elle vide de toute la viande qu'il contient. Guidée par son rêve, elle a désormais un but : devenir végétale, se perdre dans l'existence calme et inaccessible des arbres et des plantes. Ce dépouillement qui devient le sens de sa vie, le pouvoir érotique, floral de sa nudité vont faire voler en éclats les règles de la société, dans une lente descente vers la folie et l'absolu.
