About this Item

DETAILS: PAPERBACK, cover price UK 12.99 pounds, fresh attractive copy, near fine, appears unused. KIM, RYO-RYONG. The trunk. Translated by The Kolab. Toronto, Ontario: Doubleday / Penguin Random House UK, 2024, 248pp., . "Meet Noh Inji: thirty years old, five wedding rings and counting, and she's never once been in love. When Inji takes a job at Wedding & Life, the popular matchmaking service, she never imagines her role will be with NM, their secretive marriage division that rents out 'field spouses' for a fixed period to their elite clientele. Just like a real marriage, Inji's assignments involve a wedding, some sex, and a spot of housework. It's all tailored exactly to the client's desires--no legal battles, no fights, no emotional baggage. In no way is Inji interested in finding real love, despite everyone trying to convince her otherwise: her brazen neighbor, Granny; her flirtatious best friend, Shi-jeong; and a failed blind date, Tae-seong, who won't take no for an answer. At NM, love is temporary, which is just how Inji likes it. But when one of Inji's old husbands, a mysterious high-profile music producer, requests her back for another year, Inji's own dark past will begin to unravel--as well as the dark, sinister underbelly of the NM management team, who will stop at nothing to preserve their reputation and that of their wealthiest clients".

Shipping Terms

US customers: add more books to your package, at only $1 additional shipping per volume with media mail

INQUIRIES, TRACKING, PACKING: If you are a collector or have specialized concerns please explain them in detail in any inquiry using the format: "I would like to purchase this book if it meets these following criteria" and be sure that the question is not already answered by my description. It is not possible to provide additional book photos. - PACKING YOUR BOOK: all of my books are packaged to survive the journey to you safely. Tracking numbers are sent via my mailing software and/or via the abebooks system: you can follow them and even sign up with the post for a notification of the progress of your package. Thanks to all of my customers for your support over the years, and happy reading to all.

PAYMENT: paying by credit card via the abebooks system is the most convenient solution. Due to EU tax requirements I am able to accept payment in EUR to my German bank account only in rare circumstances. Customers from Brazil must be prepared to email me their CFP tax number before any order can be processed.
HOW TO SEARCH MY ABEBOOKS INVENTORY: using the advanced boolean search in abebooks can lead you to some great discoveries in my collection of scholarly books, literature, and just fun reading: but it's confusing, it's not intuitive, it's not obvious. Ask me for a special search link and guide to advanced search. You will enjoy the process and save a lot of money by ordering more than one book at a time (unfortunately, this shipping advantage only applies to customers in the US).
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: I apologize to my customers around the world for the high shipping costs which are beyond my control. Depending on the size and weight it is sometimes possible to mail two books in one priority mail envelope. If you wish to order more than one book for international shipping, feel free to inquire BEFORE YOU ORDER and I will explain the factors to consider. All packages are sent by airmail. There is no other option.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING OF LARGE NUMBERS OF BOOKS: it is often possible to ship heavier boxes of many books, 7kg to 15kg at lower cost per item and faster via UPS. Please inquire BEFORE you place an order, as this is a complicated procedure involving tax and customs fees.
