1974년에 출간된 최인호의 징편소설이다. 다음해인 1975년에 동명의 제목으로 영화로 만들어졌다. 작품은 1970년대 급속한 산업화로 사람들의 가치관이 타락하고 점차 세속화되는 것을 네 명의 젊은이들의 사랑과 죽음 이야기를 통해 비판적으로 그리고 있다.

This novel by Choi In-ho was published in 1974 and made into a film in 1975. Through the story of four young people and their love and death, the writer portrays Korean society losing values and morality due to the rapid industrialization of the 1970s.
