Book Description
Cursed Bunny is a genre-defying collection of short stories by Korean author Bora Chung. Blurring the lines between magical realism, horror, and science-fiction, Chung uses elements of the fantastic and surreal to address the very real horrors and cruelties of patriarchy and capitalism in modern society. Anton Hur’s translation skilfully captures the way Chung’s prose effortlessly glides from being terrifying to wryly humorous. Winner of a PEN/Heim Grant.

Book Description
Once upon a time, an extra large Easter egg fell gently to Earth. Three friends found the egg and watched in amazement as—with a puff of steam—an extra-large baby bunny popped out. The baby bunny grew and grew and grew until he was the size of a big friendly house, and the three friends named him Thunder Bunny because of the sound he made when he bounced. Thunder Bunny loved playing with his human friends, but he missed his big fluffy cloud family in the sky. In his fourth book for children, Rodney Alan Greenblat takes readers on an amazing, high-bouncing journey through strange and spectacular lands in search of a place called Cloudland.
