The Eyes Are the Best Part

What a book!

This novel is a feminist family and horror story. With the main topics being racism, blatant patriarchial behaviour, family bonds and living between two cultures.

The reader witnesses the slow but steady drifting of main character Ji-Won into a horrorlike obsession with blue eyes. All after her father leaves her mother, her sister and her to found a new family. Then a new man steps into her mothers life, who has a fetish for asian women and uses rather than loves her. A fact that her mother is oblivious of, but Ji-Won doesn‘t want to accept.


And just when you think the plottwist hits you, this story keeps going and takes you even deeper down the rabbithole of Ji-Wons mind.
