With the Heart of a Ghost

With the Heart of a Ghost by Lim Sunwoo is a debut collection of eight short stories that sits between literary and speculative fiction.Across the collection, everyday lives are interrupted by strange, almost surreal events;people transform into unusual forms, ghosts appear, and reality bends in subtle ways. These elements aren’t there for spectacle, but to reflect deeper emotional states such as grief, isolation, longing, and the difficulty of connecting with others.Written with a quiet, reflective tone, the stories balance the uncanny with warmth and dark humour, offering an intimate look at the inner lives of the characters and the complexities of human emotion.
