2015 Longlist
At Least We Can Apologize
Translated from the original Korean by Christopher J. Dykas
ABOUT
THE BOOK
This story focuses on an agency whose only purpose is to offer apologies-for a fee-on behalf of its clients. This seemingly insignificant service leads us into an examination of sin, guilt, and the often irrational demands of society. A kaleidoscope of minor nuisances and major grievances, this novel heralds a new comic voice in Korean letters.
