Penetrating the hearts of indifferent people

A mother who cannot escape from her father despite constant violence, a father who cleverly hides the opportunity for his crimes to be known to the outside world, a maternal grandmother who turns a blind eye, saying that it was her own choice, and seven-year-old twin brothers whom she must protect.
Through the memories of 'Lira', the novel deeply portrays the intimate feelings and situations of a child who faces the reality of violence that cannot be overcome through individual will alone.

But on the other hand, I feel resentful that my mother caused this terrible situation.
The novel depicts the complex emotions and wounds of a child exposed to abuse with no one to lean on, and traces the chilling and sharp truth of last night.
"I Am a Bad Daughter" deals with the violence that is implicit and repeated both inside and outside the home, and tells the story of 'Lira', who, through this, gropes for her own wounds and ultimately finds courage that is both painful and strong.

A day surrounded by white
Before the nurse left, I saw a look of sympathy in her tired eyes.
Why does that look make me feel so uncomfortable? Why do I care what that person thinks?
I sighed and slumped deeper into the chair.
I guess I'll have to get used to those looks now.
Because people will all look at me like that anyway.
I am no longer 'Lila Gautier'.
She is the daughter of a woman who lives with others.

Memories of colorful days
My mother was strong.
It was billions of times stronger than me.
Looking back, I was surprised.
Even in the midst of immense pain, my mother always smiled at me.
Even in a very unfortunate situation, he tried to smile to give me courage.
If there's anyone who says that 'a woman who lives with others' is always weak, I'll make sure they never say that again.
I don't think like that anymore either.
How many people can survive, even after collapsing again and again? Those who can crawl out of the floor, their own blood boiling...

A black day with a foul odor
Of course, Dad couldn't help but feel his emotions boiling over.
But the expression ‘divide and send out’ was also not correct.
Because no one else but Mom took away Dad's curses and violence.
Whenever I was in a situation where I was about to be swept up in my father's violence, my mother stepped in and became my shield.
To me, my mother was like a refuge.
But I ran away, leaving my mom to deal with it all alone.
He quickly hid under the pretense of protecting his younger siblings.
I always tried to be a good older sister, but I was a bad daughter to my mom.

Publisher's Review
They stayed still all the way!
I promise, Mom.
Now I will make sure that no one will ever turn their back on Mom again.
Even though we don't protect our mother,
I couldn't even listen to my mother's story.

From one family's story to our collective story
In the hospital hallway, Lira's memories pop up here and there.
In the white hallway, like a blank canvas, Lira's memories unfold in various colors.
From the memories of her childhood, when she was unaware of her father's true nature and sparkled with various colors, to the vivid memories of seeing her mother injured by her father's violence, the true nature of her father, a 'narcissist' with two sides, begins to be revealed through Lira's memories.
Lira says that simply describing her father as "violent" and "stupid" doesn't adequately capture his manipulative nature.
The father abuses the mother because of the 'other man' who exists only in his imagination, and when he calms down, he comes home with flowers as if nothing had happened.
Dad, who is no different from a monster at home, is revered as a hero and righteous man who saves people outside the home.
In this way, he is a 'narcissist' who controls others as he pleases.
Lira can't tell anyone about what's going on at home because her father keeps her mother hostage and warns her.
Even when I mustered up the courage to go see my maternal grandmother, she told me that it was something my mother had chosen, so it was something she should accept.
As the process of all attempts to escape violence being frustrated is revealed, Lira's memories gradually turn to the memories of the previous night that were shrouded in mystery.
Sometimes affection was the only way to resist violence.
A last resort to prevent violence from winning, to prevent violence from subduing us.
_From page 19
"I Am a Bad Daughter" reminds us of painful problems that recur in society without being resolved.
Furthermore, it questions why some violence is treated as a personal or trivial matter and is repeated without being revealed to the world.
Just like her mother, who never gave in to violence, Lira refuses to give in to the society that turned its back on her and her mother, and speaks out with a painfully sharp voice.
The voice strikes a chord in the blind spots of social awareness and chills the hearts of those who are indifferent.
I promise, Mom.
Now I will make sure that no one will ever turn their back on Mom again.
Even though we don't protect our mother,
I couldn't even listen to my mother's story.
