Description
In South Korea, where impossible beauty standards and ruthless social hierarchies dictate every move, four women balance on a razor’s edge. Kyuri is a beautiful room-salon girl paid to entertain wealthy businessmen after hours; Miho is an artist whose life becomes entangled with the offspring of the super-rich; Ara is a hairstylist whose obsession with a K-pop star drives her to violent extremes; and Wonna is their pregnant neighbour, unable to afford a child. Set in the drinking dens and beauty salons of Seoul, this debut novel explores female strength, resilience and the solace friendship can provide.
