Bridget Jones
ISBN : 9781529952919
What do you do when a girlfriend's 60th birthday party is the same day as your boyfriend's 30th ? Is it morally wrong to have a blow-dry when one of your children has head lice ? Is sleeping with someone after 2 dates and 6 weeks of texting the same as getting married after 2 meetings and 6 months of letter writing in Jane Austen's day ? Pondering these, and other dilemmas, Bridget Jones stumbles through the challenges of single motherhood, online dating, and achieving 'acceptance and calm' in what SOME people rudely call 'middle age'.

In Seoul, where impossible beauty standards and ruthless social hierarchies dictate your every move, four women are balancing on a razor's edge : Kyuri, a beautiful "room salon" girl paid to entertain wealthy businessmen after hours. Miho, an artist whose life becomes enmeshed with the offspring of the super-wealthy elite. Ara, a hairstylist whose obsession with a K-pop star leads her to violent extremes. Wonna, their neighbour, pregnant with a child that she can't afford.
