House of Idols by In-hun ChoiMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
3 short stories:
Summary (and spoilers!) below:
House of Idols, about a man, friend of a famous author. The narrator gets to know him, really likes him, and then finds out he is a mental patient.
End of the Road, which is basically about a road (highway and railroad) during postwar Korea. GIs pass, a teacher, a prostitute, and a kid.
Imprisoned. A story about a man, who we slowly find out is a mental patient.
I enjoyed this. Probably a bit more than "The Square" by the same author.
