Then, just as they are trying desperately to forge a connection in an alienated world, Se-yeon suddenly disappears. All the while, a spectral, calculating narrator haunts the edges of their lives, working to help the lost and hurting find escape through suicide. When Se-yeon reemerges, it is as the narrators new client. Recalling the emotional tension of Milan Kundera and the existential anguish of Bret Easton Ellis, I Have the Right to Destroy Myself is a dreamlike literary exploration of truth, death, desire and identity (Publishers Weekly). Cinematic in its urgency, the novel offers an atmosphere of menacing ennui [set] to a soundtrack of Leonard Cohen tunes (Newark Star-Ledger).Kims novel is art built upon art. His style is reminiscent of Kafkas and also relies on images of paintings (Jacques-Louis Davids The Death of Marat, Gustav Klimts Judith) and film (Jim Jarmuschs Stranger Than Paradise). The philosophylife is worthless and smallreminds us of Camus and Sartre, risky territory for a young writer. . . . But Kim has the advantage of the urban South Korean landscape. Fast cars, sex with lollipops and weather fronts from Siberia lend a unique flavor to good old-fashioned nihilism. Think of it as Korean noir. Los Angeles TimesLike Georges Simenon, [Kims] keen engagement with human perversity yields an abundance of thrills as well as chills (and, for good measure, a couple of memorable laughs). This is a real find.
