“나는 악인가, 아니면 초인인가, 혹은 그 둘 다인가.”

읽고나서 바로 다시 읽고 싶게 만드는 책.

The story of a retired serial killer who suffers from Alzheimers.

In the news, stories of a rumored killer start to appear. Who’s that strange man who keeps appearing in his circle? There was something important about him, but he can’t remember… And why does he feel like his daughter might be in danger?

This book was a quick, easy read. Since each chapter is a journal entry, they are mostly about half a page, to a page long. This makes the pages turn quickly, especially since you want to know what happens next. For learners, there weren’t very difficult words that I remember, except some police/crime related terms. And he quotes some famous sayings, so I looked those up to see the quote in English. Otherwise, I read this extensively without using a dictionary. Overall it was very interesting and the writing style really showed the voice of our main character. I really started to empathize with him…even if he is a murderer. I’ll definitely be reading this again!

I recommend not searching about this book or the movie because spoilers of the ending may ruin it!
