1998년에 출간된 제22회 이상문학상 수상작품집이다. 작품집은 수상작인 은희경의 단편 <아내의 상자>를 표제작으로 삼았다. <아내의 상자>는 아내에 대한 회상을 통해 30대 부부인 주인공들의 위악적인 관계와 그들의 황폐한 삶의 단면을 보여준다. 수상작 외에 후보작으로 공지영의<존재는 눈물을 흘린다>, 김인숙의<거울에 관한 이야기>, 박상우의<말무리반도>, 전경린의 <환과 멸> 등 모두 9편의 작품이 수록되어 있다.

This collection introduces the short stories nominated for the 22nd Yi Sang Literary Award in 1998, and the title of the collection is the award winner “My Wife’s Boxes” by Eun Heekyung. The story is about a couple’s everyday life, which is filled with bitterness and disappointment, and it unveils the disconnection and isolation in contemporary society to readers. The collection also has eight other stories including “The Unbearable Sadness of Being” by Gong Ji-young, “The Story about a Mirror” by Kim Insuk, “The Peninsula of the Same Language” by Park Sangwoo, and “Illusion and Disillusion” by Jon Kyongnin.
