Description
FROM THE WINNER OF THE 2024 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE
“[Han Kang’s] intense poetic prose . . . exposes the fragility of human life.”
- The Nobel Committee for Literature, in the citation for the Nobel Prize
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
WINNER OF THE INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE
ONE OF THE NEW YORK TIMES’S 100 BEST BOOKS OF THE 21ST CENTURY
“Ferocious.” - The New York Times Book Review (Ten Best Books of the Year)
“Both terrifying and terrific.” - Lauren Groff
“Provocative [and] shocking.” - The Washington Post
The Vegetarian is a knowingly allegorical, Kafka-esque tale of power, obsession, and one woman’s struggle to break free from the violence both without and within her.
