Discover the groundbreaking Korean YA
thriller, for fans of Squid Game, Black Mirror and The Hunger Games!
WHEN YOU'RE INSIDE, THE WHOLE WORLD IS
WATCHING . . .
Raised in a climate-ravaged, frozen world, every day is a struggle for
survival for Chobahm. Her only solace comes in the form of
twenty-four-hour reality television shows, streamed directly from
Snowglobe - the climate-controlled domed city at the heart of her
world, and the only warm place left on the planet.
The citizens of Snowglobe have everything: fame, fortune and, above
all, safety from the frigid wasteland outside their walls. In exchange,
their lives are broadcast to the less fortunate of their world, who
watch eagerly, hoping for the chance to one day become an actor
themselves and join their ranks.
Chobahm is one of the dreamers. But her life changes in an instant when
she is visited by two strangers from Snowglobe, who deliver
earth-shattering news: Goh Haeri, Snowglobe's biggest star has died -
and because of Chobahm's striking resemblance to her, she's been chosen
to take her place.
Given the chance of a lifetime, Chobahm agrees to enter Snowglobe and
take on Haeri's identity. Within the domed city's walls, she will
finally have the existence she's always dreamed of - but if life in
Snowglobe is so great, why did Haeri seem so desperate to escape it?
And when everyone around you is a performer, how can you ever know what
is reality, and what is created for the audience . . . ?
Published in English for the first
time from its original Korean, the critically-acclaimed Snowglobe is a
page-turning thriller with twists around every corner.

The division labor between the lexicon and the syntax has been a
major topic within the generative grammar for decades. Many
linguists have been occupied with assigning more central
information to the lexicon in order to explain the syntactic
behaviors which seem to be dependent on the lexical semantics of
certain items. This book, however, argues that the syntax-driven
approach, whereby properties of grammatical structures, typically
having been assumed to be associated with lexical items, are
reduced to general syntactic considerations, can provide
straightforward accounts to various domains of nominal and
adjectival constructions. The sets of functional projections
responsible for forming nominal and adjectival phrases are also
identified, which are considered universally attested and
necessitated even in East Asian languages, which have been known as
the languages with impoverished functional categories. This book
will be useful to linguists interested in the syntax-semantics
interface issues especially in the nominal and adjectival
constructions and also serve as a reference source for those
interested in East Asian languages including Korean.
