Spanning a single day, this tense spy novel from Kim (I Have the Right to Destroy Myself), marred only by some stilted prose, is also a deeply compelling study of the self and varying themes of trust. Kim Ki-yong, a North Korean spy who's lived undercover for 21 years, has fully adapted to life in Seoul, South Korea, where he runs a successful foreign-film importing business, owns a home, and has a wife and teenage daughter, neither of whom is aware of his past or actual identity. As Ki-yong ponders returning to the austere and sterile militaristic regime of the North after receiving a coded message from his handler ("Liquidate everything and return immediately"), his wife, Ma-ri, struggles with infidelity and his daughter, Hyon-mi, maneuvers the tumultuous and tricky landscape of adolescence. Kim offers a riveting tale of espionage along with keen observations of human behavior.

박범신

Korean novelist Kim's tantalizing 1996 debut novel concerns a calculating, urbane young man who makes a business of helping his clients commit suicide. The narrator's favorite painting, Jacques-Louis David's The Death of Marat, encapsulates his outlook-to be detached and cold, an approach reflected in his account of a recent client who was romantically involved with two brothers (called C and K). The woman, Se-yeon, is a young, spacey, lollipop-sucking drifter who first hangs out with K before bedding C. Cab-driver K and video artist C become obsessed with Se-Yeon, who looks (to them) like Gustave Klimt's Judith. Judith, as they subsequently refer to her, later wanders off into a snowstorm, never to be seen by the brothers again. However, in this eerie, elliptical narrative, Judith reappears as the narrator's client. Moreover, Judith morphs into other objects of desire, such as a woman from Hong Kong the narrator meets in Vienna and an elusive performance artist named Mimi whom C films. Kim's work is a self-conscious literary exploration of truth, death, desire and identity, and though it traffics in racy themes, it never devolves into base voyeurism.

Haruki, Murakami

1960년 첫 단편 「분노의 계절」을 발표한 이후 1988년 폐암으로 세상을 떠날 때까지 삼십 년 가까운 세월 동안 그는 소설집, 시집, 에세이 등 십여 권의 책을 펴냈다. 그러나 카버의 진면목은 무엇보다 단편소설에서 확인할 수 있으며, 그런 까닭에 전 세계 많은 젊은 소설가들이 좋아하는 작가로 주저 없이 '레이먼드 카버'를 꼽는다. 소설가 무라카미 하루키 역시 카버의 팬을 자처하며, 그의 소설을 직접 번역해 일본에 소개하기도 했다. 『대성당』은 단편작가로서 절정기에 올라 있던 레이먼드 카버의 문학적 성과가 고스란히 담겨 있는, 그의 대표작이다. 표제작 「대성당」을 비롯해 「별것 아닌 것 같지만, 도움이 되는」 「깃털들」 등 총 열두 편의 단편이 실려 있는 이 작품집은, 평단과 독자의 지지를 동시에 얻으며 퓰리처상과 전미도서상 후보에도 올랐다.
