옥상에서 만나요 is an anthology of short stories. It's absolutely electric and gripping. Each story has thematic elements of feminism in the context of Korea and its expectations for single and married women. Some of the stories have a fantastical flair and all of the stories have an absurdist type of humor that draws you in. Absolutely love it. Not to give a spoiler, but I'd highly recommend people read the author's note at the end of the book once they are finished. It includes an interesting snippet about one of the short stories that makes you test your assumptions!

On a more personal note, this is the first fiction book I've read in a while and the first "adult" Korean book I've read in my life. Could not chosen a better one to mark this occasion.

효진, 보늬, 이혼 세일 좋았습니다.
영원히 77사이즈는 다시 읽고싶지 않아요. 너무 기괴한 이야기.

通过讲述婚纱的故事，勾勒出的形形色色的女子们的形象，真是太有创意了。婚纱暴露出了婚姻，两性，家庭的真实模样。

정세랑 작가의 실험 정신이 돋보인다. 글을 이렇게 써도 되나 싶을 정도로 신선한 기존 형식의 파괴라는 점에서 좋은 평가를 주고 싶다.
