Love in the Big City is an energetic, joyful, and moving novel that depicts both
the glittering nighttime world of Seoul and the bleary-eyed morning-after. Young
is a cynical yet fun-loving Korean student who pinballs from home to class to
the beds of recent Tinder matches. He and Jaehee, his female best friend,
frequent nearby bars where they push away their anxieties about their love
lives, families, and money with rounds of soju and Marlboro Reds. Over time,
even Jaehee leaves Young to settle down, leaving him alone to care for his
ailing mother and to find companionship in his relationships with a series of
men, including one whose handsomeness is matched by his coldness, and another
who might end up being the great love of his life. Love in the Big Cityis an
exploration of millennial loneliness as well as the joys of queer life, that
should appeal to readers of Sayaka Murata, Han Kang, and Cho Nam-Joo.
