Bringing Them the Lindy Hop
2013
A debut short story collection by Son Bo-mi,
Bringing Them the Lindy Hop gathers nine finely wrought tales
that capture subtle fractures in everyday lives.
The collection reveals moments of unexpected rupture, quiet longing,
and the delicate balance between what is seen and what is left unsaid.
Recipient of the Kim Junseong Literary Award.
This collection includes two award-winning short stories:
“Downpour” (Young Writers’ Award Grand Prize)
and “A Scientist’s Love” (Young Writers’ Award).
