3.5 stars. There were some definite chilling moments in the book, set in South Korea regarding the psychological welfare of women in today's time. It also showed me how far either we have come in America or how not far they are in South Korea culturally. Basically, it demonstrates through a woman who has had a psychotic break and thinks she is someone else the disparities of women's opportunities and men's. Notice I didn't say rights. Because what this book seemed to show is that there are cultural changes that are not changing with the political changes (which isn't that far off of anything no matter the country). But anyway, that is the premise of the book, and the ending was pretty amazing, too. However, it certainly did not give me any new information or perspectives. Just reinforced what many of us already know.
