IF I HAD YOUR FACE
In South Korea, where impossible beauty standards and ruthless social hierarchies dictate your every move, four women are balancing on a razors edge: Kyuri, a beautiful room salon girl paid to entertain wealthy businessmen after hours. Miho, an artist whose life becomes enmeshed with the offspring of the super-wealthy elite. Ara, a hairstylist whose obsession with a K-pop star leads her to violent extremes. Wonna, their neighbour, pregnant with a child that she cant afford. Set in the drinking dens and beauty salons of Seoul, If I Had Your Face is an electrifying debut novel about female strength, resilience and the solace that friendship can provide. Chas writing always crackles . . . Touching, compelling and icily cool Observer Fascinating, eye-opening, compelling - like the film Parasite, If I Had Your Face is also an exposé of the class system in South Korea Independent Absolutely stunning. . . Assured, bold, and electrifying Taylor Jenkins Reid, Sunday Times
