About the Book
Green Frog: Stories
From the author of SEA CHANGE comes a short story collection that explores Korean American womanhood, bodies, animals and transformation as a means of survival.
Equal parts fantastical --- a pair of talking dolls help twins escape a stifling home, a heart boils on the stove as part of an elaborate cure for melancholy, a fox demon contemplates avenging her sister's death --- and true to life --- a mother and daughter try to heal their rift when the daughter falls unexpectedly pregnant, a woman reexamines her father's legacy after his death --- the stories in GREEN FROG are hopeful and heartbreaking, full of danger and full of joy.
Gina Chung is a master at capturing emotion, and her characters --- human and otherwise --- will claw their way into your heart and make themselves at home.
