Equal parts bone-chilling, wryly funny and deeply political, The Midnight Timetable is a masterful work of literary horror from one of our time's greatest imaginations. 'I inhaled Bora Chung's book of ghost stories and then slept with the light on!' Avni Doshi, author of Burnt Sugar'A wild midnight tour of a uniquely brilliant and exquisitely demented world - a world I did not want to leave!' Gerardo Samano Cordova, author of MonstrilioIn a labyrinthine research facility, where those who open the wrong door might find it's disappeared behind them or that the echoing footsteps they're running from are their own, an unnamed protagonist begins their night shift under the watchful eye of the building's enigmatic senior guard. Each evening, as the fluorescent lights flicker and the silence grows heavier, the guard shares another tale of cursed objects and lives unspooled by vengeance, sorrow or revelation. But these are not mere ghost stories. They're warnings.
