_______________

SEQUEL TO THE PHENOMENAL KOREAN BESTSELLER
TRANSLATED BY INTERNATIONAL BOOKER SHORTLISTEE ANTON HUR

Baek Sehee could never have predicted how many people I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki would reach across the world. A runaway bestseller in South Korea, Japan, China, Indonesia, and the UK, this record of conversations with her therapist demonstrated the realities of anxiety and depression in a uniquely intimate way.

But Baek’s battle with dysthymia did not end there. Grappling with mental health is an everyday struggle. In I Want to Die but I Still Want to Eat Tteokbokki, Baek’s experiences become more complex, as she demonstrates that striving for contentment is an ongoing journey.
