Eun Heeyung's characters are misfits who, by virtue of their bodies or their lack of social status, are left to dream of momentous changes that will never come. Unsatisfied with work, with family, and with friends, they lose themselves in diets, books, and blogs. Her work humorously but humanely depicts the loneliness and monotony found in many modern lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEun Heekyung\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of thirteen books of fiction and her work has been translated into seven languages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAmber Hyun Jung Kim\u003c\/b\u003e is a freelance translator and conference interpreter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeekyung Eun: Eun Heekyung has a literature degree at Sookmyung Women's University, and a graduate\u003cbr\u003edegree in literature from Yonsei University, both in Seoul.
