The Eyes Are the Best Part Audiobook

CRYING IN H-MART MEETS MY SISTER, THE SERIAL KILLER IN THIS FEMINIST PSYCHOLOGICAL HORROR ABOUT THE MAKING OF A SERIAL KILLER FROM A KOREAN AMERICAN PERSPECTIVE.

Ji-won’s life tumbles into disarray in the wake of her appa’s extramarital affair and subsequent departure. Her mother, distraught. Her younger sister, hurt and confused. Her college freshman grades, failing. Her dreams, horrifying … yet enticing.

In them, Ji-won walks through bloody rooms full of eyes. Succulent blue eyes. Salivatingly blue eyes. Eyes the same shape and shade as George’s, who is Umma’s obnoxious new boyfriend. He brags about his puffed-up consulting job, ogles Asian waitresses while dining out, and acts condescendingly toward Ji-won and her sister, as if he deserves all of Umma’s fawning adoration. George doesn’t deserve anything from her family. Ji-won will make sure of that.

For no matter how many victims accumulate around her campus or how many people she must deceive and manipulate, Ji-won’s hunger and her rage deserve to be sated.

A brilliantly inventive, subversive novel about a young woman unraveling, Monika Kim’s The Eyes Are the Best Part marks a bold new voice in horror that will leave readers mesmerized and craving more.

“At least once a year a book hits shelves that can best be described as ‘absolutely unhinged,’ and The Eyes Are the Best Part by Monika Kim promises to be just that.”—Polygon
