Green Frog

Equal parts fantastical-a pair of talking dolls help twins escape a stifling home, a heart boils on the stove as part of an elaborate cure for melancholy, a fox demon contemplates avenging her sister's death-and true to life-a mother and daughter try to heal their rift when the daughter falls unexpectedly pregnant, a woman reexamines her father’s legacy after his death-the stories in this collection are hopeful and heartbreaking, full of danger and full of joy.
Chung is a master at capturing emotion, and her characters-human and otherwise-will claw their way into your heart and make themselves at home.
At this event, Gina Chung discusses her new book and more with author Jinwoo Chong.
