Description:
It's winter in Sokcho, a tourist town on the border between South and North Korea. The cold slows everything down. Bodies are red and raw, the fish turn venomous, beyond the beach guns point out from the North's watchtowers. A young French Korean woman works as a receptionist in a tired guesthouse. One evening, an unexpected guest arrives- a French cartoonist determined to find inspiration in this desolate landscape. The two form an uneasy relationship. When she agrees to accompany him on trips to discover an "authentic" Korea, they visit snowy mountaintops and dramatic waterfalls, and cross into North Korea. But he takes no interest in the Sokcho she knows - the gaudy neon lights, the scars of war, the fish market where her mother works. As she's pulled into his vision and taken in by his drawings, she strikes upon a way to finally be seen.
An exquisitely-crafted debut, which won the Prix Robert Walser, Winter in Sokcho is a novel about shared identities and divided selves, vision and blindness, intimacy and alienation. Elisa Shua Dusapin's voice is distinctive and unmistakable.
'Mysterious, beguiling, and glowing with tender intelligence, Winter in Sokcho is a master class in tension and atmospherics, a study of the delicate, murky filaments of emotion that compose a life. Dusapin has a rare and ferocious gift for pinning the quick, slippery, liveness of feeling to the page- her talent is a thrill to behold.'
-Alexandra Kleeman, author of You Too Can Have a Body Like Mine
'Enigmatic, beguiling ... This finely crafted debut explores topics of identity and heredity in compelli

You Stand Out
Great quality, vibrant color, and reasonable price. I really like the look of this suit. I bought it for a friend, and he really loved it as well. This suit really makes you stand out in a crowd, and would be good for prom or another special event.

Prom Time🙌🙌
Color: Gold, Size: Medium, Color: Gold, Size: Medium
I purchased this suit for my son’s prom, and it exceeded our expectations. The fit was true to size, the material feels good quality, and it looks very sharp in person. He was comfortable wearing it all day, and it gave him a polished, confident look for his special day. I would definitely recommend this suit to anyone looking for a stylish and well-fitting option!

Excellent quality for an excellent price tag
Color: Blue, Size: Medium
The suit arrived in 2 days after ordering; it arrived in excellent condition, was wrapped in clear plastic, however it was only in one package and should have been wrapped in a second layer in case of accidentally opening during the shipping process.
The suit was folded very neatly, I'll keep it as is as it's a gift for a friend of mine who is a musician and he will use it for
performance on stage. The size was M and correct. Unfortunately, it has arrived in the wrong color, I ordered blue, and purple has been delivered.
I hope, he likes it anyway. I'll keep it as it is too inconvenient for me to exchange it and ship it back to the sender.

Beautiful suit
Color: Purple, Size: Small
Suit is better than I expected. Bought this for my son for prom. The sequins POP. I am highly satisfied with this purchase. My son is 5'6 about 130 lbs and I ordered a size XS and it fit perfect. The only complaint I have is there is a hole for a button but no button is attached to the suit. Besides that, GET IT.
