A Magical Girl Retires is award-winning Korean writer Park Seolyeon’s first novel to be translated into English. It’s a weird, delightful little book, simultaneously grim and breezy, and the translation (by Anton Hur) communicates a fluid, straightforward and self-deprecatingly humorous first-person narration.
