The black orb / Ewhan Kim ; translated by Sean Lin Halbert.
"One evening in downtown Seoul, Jeong-su is smoking a cigarette outside when he sees something impossible: a huge black orb appears out of nowhere and sucks his neighbour inside. The orb soon begins consuming other people and no one knows how to stop it... A piercingly dark, surreal satire on mass panic, disaster response and modern masculinity."-- From publisher description.
