8 Lives Of A Century-Old Trickster

Mirinae Lee

Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and our contributors’ reviews. 8 Lives Of A Century-Old Trickster by Mirinae Lee weaves a tale of love and war, and the artful trickery needed to survive.

What We Say: “A shapeshifter and a survivor, be enthralled by one woman’s account of her life – and Korea’s complex past – that sees her take on roles as an escape artist, murderer, terrorist, spy, lover and mother – among others.” – Samantha de Haas

What They Say: “In Mirinae Lee’s 8 Lives Of A Century-Old Trickster, a sly, flinty protagonist summons all of her charm to survive one hundred years of tumult, espionage, and war. I have never put so much trust in a verified liar. Part spy novel, part ode to storytelling, Lee’s debut captivated and surprised me” – Alyssa Songsiridej
