A review by booksonmars
The Old Woman with the Knife by Gu Byeong -Mo

emotional reflective slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? It's complicated

4.0

Despite the tense fighting scenes and grisly assasinations, this is a quiet yet moving story about a woman struggling in a society where ageing is seen as something to be ashamed of. The ending was so beautifully sad but very touching.
