Description
Lemon by Kwon Yeo-Sun is a psychological portrait of three women haunted by a brutal, unsolved crime. In 2002, nineteen-year-old Kim Hae-on was murdered in what became known as the High School Beauty Murder. Seventeen years pass without justice, and the grief takes a cruel toll on her younger sister, Da-on. The story shifts between Da-on's perspective and those of two classmates who were struck by Hae-on's otherworldly beauty. While identifying the perpetrator is not the main objective, Kwon Yeo-sun uses this well-worn form to craft a searing exploration of privilege, jealousy, trauma, and how we live with the wrongs we have endured and inflicted. This is a chilling yet deeply moving story about grief, trauma, life, death, and the shattered pieces left behind by those who are gone.
