About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
At some point between living alone and becoming single, Hwang Sunwoo and Kim Hana found each other, and decided to live together in a nice apartment where their four cats would finally have the freedom to run around. Together they became a family - and redefined it.
At a time housing costs have skyrocketed whilst the birth rates plummets, these two independent Korean women in their late forties share their views on society and its expectations of them. And, intent neither to marry or to live alone, they reflect on the comfort of their cohabiting friendship as it blossoms into a life full of joy and meaning.
Quietly radical, full of warmth and wit, WOMEN LIVING TOGETHER celebrates carving out your own path, cats, female friendship, and a different kind of family.

Critic reviews
Everything about this compelling, curious, beautiful story of two women moving in together, in midlife, is delightful. They made me think about the way I live, and how I might like to change the way I live.
I loved the simplicity of the way Hana and Sunwoo wrote about one another, and the profound insights about life and human behaviour they both dropped, like dazzling little bombs, while otherwise describing the way light fell in a room, or the other’s cooking habits. Stepping into the intimacy of their shared world felt like a true privilege: I loved every moment of it.
