The story of four damaged girls who love and avenge one another in the playground of New Yorks Korea-town. Reminiscent of Jeffrey Eugenidess 'The Virgin Suicides' and Joyce Carol Oatess 'Foxfire: Confessions of a Girl Gang', 'The Queens of K-town' introduces us to twenty-six-year-old Cora Moon. She returns to New York bruised, broken-hearted, and on the verge of ending it all. Ten years after she watched her best friend leap off the roof of a building, shes trying to hold onto the pieces of her own fragile existence while reliving her past. Her days are flooded with memories of her first summer there, when she became entrenched in a tight-knit group of girls who roamed the fluorescent alleyways of K-town. Along with her new teenage friends — Bev, Mina, and Soo Young — Cora navigated the fast-paced maze of nightclubs and hostess bars, engaging in backroom brawls and disastrous private meals with Korean mafia members. A haunting tale of desire and loss, and sex and suicide, 'The Queens of K-Town' marks the arrival of a brave new voice in fiction.
