When her mother tells her that eating fish eyes will bring good luck and hints that it may help her father return home, Ji-won tries one and immediately begins dreaming about eating eyes. Human eyes.</p><p>Instead of Ji-wons parents reuniting, however, her mother starts dating George, a Caucasian man with an obvious Asian fetish. Tormented by her dreams, Ji-won becomes obsessed with his beautiful blue eyes and begins noticing blue eyes all around her. No longer able to control her urges, she finds opportunities to feed her hunger, growing more and more reckless each day. And, as her obsession grows, so does her selfishness: the things that once seemed important to her no longer do, and Ji-won, who has always been hopelessly devoted to her family, decides that she must do the one thing that will end her cravings once and for all.</p><p>A brilliantly inventive, subversive novel about a young woman unravelling from feeling for too long - because of race, because of misogyny - completely unseen, THE EYES ARE THE BEST PART is also a story of an immigrant family falling apart and trying to find their way back to each other.</p>...(*_*)9781914240881_<p><strong>THE <em>SUNDAY TIMES</em> BESTSELLING GOOD FOR HER NOVEL</strong><br /><strong>Features on New York Times Best Horror Fiction of 2024 list</strong><br /><strong>A TIME Top 100 Book of the Year</strong><br /><strong>Soon to be a major motion picture</strong><br /><strong>Shortlisted for the Goodreads Choice Awards for Best Debut Novel and Horror Book</strong><br /><strong>In GOOGLE PLAYs top reads of 2024</strong><br /><strong>A Barnes & Noble Best Horror of 2024</strong><br /><strong>A Kobo Best Horror Audiobook of 2024</strong><br /><strong>Spotify Editors Pick 2024 and</strong> <strong>Spotify Breakout Authors 2024</strong><br /><strong>Features on New York Times Best Horror Fiction of 2024 list</strong><br /><strong>Shortlisted by the American Library Association for their annual Reading List in Horror</strong></p><p><strong><em>THE EYES ARE THE BEST PART</em> is an outstanding debut, a feminist horror novel that tackles big social issues and also delivers the gory origin story of a female serial killer. - NEW YORK TIMES</strong></p><p><strong>I WAS ENTICED FROM THE FIRST LINE - Oyinkan Braithwaite</strong></p><p><strong>DARKLY FUNNY - Fern Brady</strong></p><p><strong>A DARK MODERN FAIRYTALE OF FEMALE VENGEANCE - Harriet Walker</strong></p><p><strong>VERY CLEVER, VERY WEIRD, BRILLIANT SOCIAL COMMENTARY - Abigail Bergstrom</strong></p><p><em><strong>My Sister, the Serial Killer meets Boy Parts, this literary feminist howl-of-a-debut is going to crawl right under your skin...</strong></em></p><p>Ji-wons life is in disarray.
