2020 book 81

Frances Cha's If I Had Your Face
This is the story of five women living in an apartment building in Seoul—a mute hairdresser and her childhood friend/roommate, a woman in an unhappy marriage, an artist dating the son of a wealthy family, and a woman who is a high-class escort. But it is also about social and familial pressures, the hardships of being a woman, class issues, friendships, etc. I really loved this, and my only complaint is that it ended in a place where I wanted it to keep going! A/A-.
