“키스할 때마다 어쩐지 덧니 위주로 했었다. 뭐가 그렇게 좋은 거지?”

정세랑 장편의 시작은 이 소설이 열었다.
8년 만에 전면 개정하여 선보이는 그의 첫 장편소설!

2010년 1월 『판타스틱』에 「드림, 드림, 드림」을 발표하며 등단한 후 창비장편소설상, 한국일보문학상을 수상하고 미디어 플랫폼 넷플릭스의 러브콜을 받는 등 각종 매체와 독자의 마음을 골고루 사로잡은 작가 정세랑의 ‘첫’ 장편소설이다. 분야와 소재를 가리지 않고 소설 영토를 종횡무진하는 상상력과 거침없는 필력은 이 소설에 아홉 개의 이야기를 짜넣으며 조합한 솜씨로 일찌감치 예고된 것인지 모른다.
장르 소설가 재화가 작품 속에서 헤어진 남자친구 용기를 아홉 번이나 죽이게 되고 그 죽음의 순간이 용기의 피부에 문신처럼 새겨진다는 게 작품의 큰 줄기다. 정세랑의 특장인 생동감 있는 대사의 말맛이 잘 살아 있는 이번 장편은 스릴러적인 긴장과 비판적 시선을 놓지 않으면서도 발랄하게 튀어오르는 탄성과 재치로 읽는 이에게 건강한 웃음을 남긴다.
8년 만에 전면 개정하여 선보인 이 작품은 동세대의 감수성과 달라진 지형을 영리하게 반영하며 거의 모든 문장을 고치고 설정을 세밀하게 다듬었다. 그동안 ‘한국 문학’의 경계가 어디인지 시험하며 다채로운 빛깔로 새로운 종이 되고자 꿈틀거려온 그다. 이제 새로운 독자들의 감수성이 펼쳐둔 지도 위 정세랑이라는 별자리는 그 한가운데서 빛난다. 좋은 이야기는 어려운 선택을 하는 이들의 편에 서는 이야기라고 믿는 작가 정세랑. 그가 썼으며 앞으로 써나갈 이야기의 우주, 그 씨앗이 여기 있다.
