I Want to Become a Strong and Beautiful Grandma 강하고 아름다운 할머니가 되고 싶어
“It takes a whole village even to heal a fully grown adult.”
A young woman named Kang Hago, exhausted by life, is “kidnapped” by muscular grandmothers of the seaside village Gujeolchori and pushed headlong back into the midst of living. The novel, which won the 12th Brunch Book Project (1,000 to 1 odds) as the first prizewinner in the newly created fiction category, inherits the warmth and page-turning tension of earlier Brunch-born hits like Welcome to Hyunam-dong Bookshop and Camellia Salon. Life Pattern Korea.
The story follows Hago—weak in both body and spirit—who, among grandmothers stronger than seen anywhere else, slowly recovers zest, love, and the power of tight-knit solidarity. Author Kim Seul-gi says she began with the idea of “a completely broken, lonely person recovering somewhere.” Life Pattern Korea. Readers will plunge into this world of rest, feeling the novel itself as a place to breathe deeply.
