Same Bed Different Dreams is a wild, sweeping novel that imagines an alternate secret history of Korea and the traces it leaves on the present. Loaded with assassins, mad poets, RPGs, slasher films, pop bands, and the perils of social media, this book challenges your view of twentieth-century history and offers a vision akin to A Gravity's Rainbow for another war, an unfinished war.

In 1919, Korean patriots establish the Korean Provisional Government (KPG) to protest the Japanese occupation. This government-in-exile proves mostly symbolic, but what if the KPG still existed today, clandestinely working toward a unified Korea? The novel weaves together three distinct narrative voices with an archive of mysterious images, twisting reality and blending Korean history with American pop culture.

The protagonist, Soon Sheen, a former writer now working for the tech giant GLOAT, stumbles upon an unfinished manuscript seemingly penned by the KPG. This revisionist history connects both well-known figures and lesser-known individuals to the KPG's grand project, from Syngman Rhee and architect-poet Yi Sang to Jack London and Marilyn Monroe. Even the television series M*A*S*H, the Moonies, and a history of violence from the assassination of President McKinley to the downing of a passenger plane that almost sparked a war are woven into the narrative.

Authored by Ed Park, acclaimed for Personal Days, Same Bed Different Dreams is a raucously funny achievement of imagination. A thrilling blend of history and fiction, it pulls readers into another dimension—one in which utopia is not just a dream, but a possibility.

Science is so f*cking rad. We don't deserve it. What actually is quantum physics?
