Publisher's summary

From the New York Times Notable author of The Old Woman with the Knife comes a bracingly original story about four women whose lives intersect in dramatic ways at a government-run apartment complex outside Seoul

When Yojin moves with her husband and daughter into the Dream Future Pilot Communal Apartments, she’s ready for a fresh start. The experimental community is a government initiative designed to boost the national birth rate. Like her neighbors, Yojin has agreed to have at least two more children over the next ten years.

Apartment Women follows Yojin and three other women, all with different aspirations and beliefs, as they navigate communal living in the apartments. Will they find a way to live peacefully? Or are the cards stacked against them from the start? A trenchant social novel from an award-winning author, Apartment Women is a haunting, unforgettable story of family, marriage and the cultural expectations around motherhood.
