Are These Books Drunk?

The Vegetarian - Part 2


Listen Later

28 - Welcome back for another happy hour chatting about The Vegetarian by Han Kang.  This week we're sipping on another Soju-based cocktail, this one reminiscent of Yeong-hye's Mongolian Mark, the Blue Beauty. In the spirit of Yeong-hye's apparent metamorphosis, we muse on what we'd metamorphose into, our pre-Covid guilty (or not-so-guilty) pleasures, and given the ending of this chapter, Mariana wonders whether In-hye cares about her sister at all. We also get a fabulous *Listener Question* going back to one of our previous episodes - thanks for sending it our way, Adrian!

Chapters Discussed:  Part 2 (Mongolian Mark)

Next Week:  Part 3 (Flaming Trees)

Join us again for Happy Hour next Thursday, and follow us on Insta @AreTheseBooksDrunk for updates on our next episode & cocktail pairing so that you can read along and sip along with us!
