Chosen as Asymptote's May Book Club Pick!Finalist for Big Other's Book Award for Translation"Yideum is primarily a poet and this is evident in the texture and sensuality of her prose, skillfully translated by Ji Yoon Lee." -- Asymptote"Unapologetically feminist... The novel has as much to say about the contemporary #MeToo era as it does '80s South Korea." -- Spectrum Culture"This slim novel juggles so much: same-gender attraction, violence against women, abusive families, and more. This tightly-wound, exacting story is set during the late 80's, a time of student activism and suppression in Korea. Jeong Yeoul is unforgettable and mesmerizing as she navigates college life, gender norms, politics, and death." -- Anna, Bookseller at City Lights Bookstore, "Yideum is primarily a poet and this is evident in the texture and sensuality of her prose, skillfully translated by Ji Yoon Lee. "My flesh crumbles into tiny flakes. I love that I can't see myself--there is no anger, no grudge, just darkness here." Such sentences are comfortably juxtaposed to the coarse way Yeoul speaks and describes the world around her. Yideum expertly depicts a world in which female pain is casually cast aside--a world that will be all too familiar to many female readers." "This slim novel juggles so much: same-gender attraction, violence against women, abusive families, and more. This tightly-wound, exacting story is set during the late 80's, a time of student activism and suppression in Korea.

Jeong Yeoul is unforgettable and mesmerizing as she navigates college life, gender norms, politics, and death." -- Anna, Bookseller at City Lights Bookstore "As she deals with the traumas of a family member's death, a friend's suicide, and her own sexual assault, there is something powerfully irrefutable about the narrator's untethered unloading of confessions, observations, and scathing rage. Lee's multifaceted translation captures the character's contradictions--expressing the uncontrollable forces of sorrow, apathy, confusion--and the hope that having a voice is a way to freedom." -- Bonnie Chau, Public Books, "Yideum is primarily a poet and this is evident in the texture and sensuality of her prose, skillfully translated by Ji Yoon Lee. "My flesh crumbles into tiny flakes. I love that I can't see myself--there is no anger, no grudge, just darkness here."

Synopsis
A woman in 1980s Korea struggles to understand her identity and live an authentic life in the face of injustice., Blood Sisters tells the story of Jeong Yeoul, a young Korean college student in the 1980's, when the memory of President Chun Doohwan's violent suppression of student demonstrations against martial law was still fresh. Yideum captures with raw honesty the sense of dread felt by many Korean women during this time as Jeong struggles in a swirl of misguided desires and hopelessness against a society distorted by competing ideologies, sexual violence, and cultural conservatism. Facing this helplessness, her impulse is to escape into the world of art. Blood Sisters is a vivid, powerful portrayal of a woman's efforts to live an authentic life in the face of injustice., Blood Sisters, the debut novel from one of South Korean's most outspoken and renowned feminist poets, follows young college student Jeong Yeoul through a year filled with intense emotional growth, sexual exploration, and the pain of loss. Running away from a painful home life, taking her first job in a sketchy café, immersing herself in the world of art, Jeong confronts the cultural conservatism of South Korean society in the 1980s, a time of student uprisings and revolutionary transformations, still reeling from the military dictatorship's violent suppression of recent demonstrations. Exploring the issues that have come to define the "Hell Joseon" culture of contemporary South Korea, Kim captures with raw honesty the sense of dread felt by many young Korean women. Jeong struggles in a swirl of misguided desires and hopelessness against a society distorted by competing ideologies, sexual violence, and Korea's abiding patriarchy. Facing this helplessness, she is forced to make a choice between the pressure for a young woman to marry and give up her ambitions, or to break free from every oppressive expectation on her to five an authentic life in the face of intense injustice.
