A review by goblinhearted
The Vegetarian by Han Kang
3.0
The Vegetarian is the story of a woman, Yeong-hye, told from three different perspectives. The first part is told by her husband, the second part by her sister's husband, and the final part by her sister.
This was a quick but disturbing read.
It's been a few days but I'm still unsure how I feel about it. By the end of the book, I was looking for some sort of resolution or some closure - even the tiniest bit.
I would have really liked to hear Yeong-hye's perspective, but the fact that we didn't get that is kind of the point. I'm not sure I'd recommend this one.
