Our second group read of 2023 is Cursed Bunny by Bora Chung, translated by Anton Hur. It was shortlisted for the 2022 International Booker Prize.

From the synopsis:
Cursed Bunny is a genre-defying collection of short stories by Korean author Bora Chung. 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.

I've had the book on my TBR for a while now. This is the first time I take part in a book club. Are there any guidelines?
