Gull
O-bok�s eldest daughter is about to get married to an educated, well-off young man, but she�s far from happy. It�s not just hot weather, hot flushes, her daughters� materialism, her mother�s dementia, her husband�s drinking, or the impending gentrification of the food market where she sells fish � although all of that will push her to take a stand. After trying to cover it up, O-bok reveals to her daughter that she was raped by a fellow stallholder, the man organising the traders against their landlords. Increasingly furious, O-bok eschews the useless police to pursue her own justice, even if it means a physical fight.
