2007년에 출간된 김태용의 소설집이다. 표제작을 비롯하여 <오른쪽에서 세번째 집>, <중력은 고마워>, <차라리, 사랑>, <궤적>등 모두 10편의 작품이 수록되어 있다. 작가는 죽은 아내가 살아있다고 믿는 치매걸린 노인, 친구 아내를 욕망하는 남자, 죽은 아버지를 담은 병과 함께 사는 가족 등 기괴한 인물들을 통해 붕괴된 가족 등 이곳의 현실을 되돌아보게 한다. 특히 작가는 동어반복과 문장의 비약, 단어의 재의미화 등 정립된 질서에 질문을 던지는 글쓰기를 하고 있다.

This short story collection by Kim Taeyong was published in 2007. It includes a total of ten short stories, including “The Third House from the Right,” “Thank You, Gravity,” “Would Rather Love,” “Print,” and the title story. Featuring an elderly man with dementia who believes his dead wife is alive, a man who lusts after his friend’s wife, and a family who keep their dead father inside a bottle, the stories are a reflection on the nature of the broken family and other realities. In particular, the author questions the established order through his repetition of words, leaping prose, and attempts to redefine words.
