This is a collection of eight short stories by Kim Insuk, published in 2005. As the passion, frustration, and disillusionment of a certain generation overlap with individual narratives, such as the loss of individual dreams, the stories raise questions about how to live on in an era of loss and disillusionment.

2005년에 출간된 김인숙의 소설집이다. 총8편의 단편이 수록되어 있다. 특정 세대의 열정과 좌절, 환멸이 개인의 꿈 상실 등의 개별서사와 겹쳐지며 상실과 환멸의 시대에 어떻게 살아가야 할지에 대해 질문을 던지고 있다.
