Grocery List - Bora Chung trans. Anton Hur ” — Tessa BoffinDo you know what an ah gwi is? A ghost of someone who starved to death. Ghost stories, urban legends, weird tales floating around the Internet, I was into all of that. Sometimes, I would tell her some of them between puffs as we stood there staring at the dumpsters.
