1989년 출간된 한승원의 장편소설이다. 이 작품은 정치적 의식이 상이한 박주철, 박윤길 부자를 통해 세대 간의 대립을 드러내고 있다. 특히 작품에서 주요하게 작동하는 주제인 '살부 의식'은 과거와의 단절과 혁명을 의미한다.

Published in 1989, this novel by Han Seung-won deals with a conflict between a father and his son, with the idea of patricide symbolizing the severance of the past and the revolutionization of society.
