A worldwide phenomenon, already translated in 18 countries. Finalist for the prestigious Booker Prize. Chung Bora is the literary revelation of the year.
Cursed Bunny is a genre-defying collection of short stories by Korean author Chung Bora. Blurring the lines between magical realism, horror, and science fiction, Chung uses elements of the fantastic and surreal to address the very real horrors and cruelties of patriarchy and capitalism in modern society.
Chung Bora lives in Seoul, where she was born. She has published three novels and three collections of short stories. A graduate of Yale and Indiana University, she teaches Russian language and literature and science fiction at Yonsei University. She is also a translator from Russian and Polish for contemporary literary works.
“Chung has assembled a marvelous tasting platter of genres: classic ghost stories, fairy tales, mythic fantasy, science fiction, dark fables, the surreal and unclassifiable horror-adjacent.”
