Don’t look back.
Did Eurydice want to return from the underworld? Did anybody ask?
Weaving together Greek mythology, neuroscience, and memories inherited from her Korean grandparents, the narrator grapples with death by telling stories to her younger brother that ask what life means for him, for her, and for their family.
Recasting the myths of Eurydice, Orpheus, Persephone, and Hades through the lens of a Korean American family, Eunice Hong’s debut novel explores the grief and love of a woman coming to terms with trauma, memory, and the inescapability of death.
