I Want to Die but I Still Want to Eat Tteokbokki

Baek Sehee’s I Want to Die but I Still Want to Eat Tteokbokki is the sequel to her internationally successful memoir about depression, anxiety, and psychotherapy. The book continues her candid conversations with her psychiatrist, blending personal reflection, self-observation, and dialogue to explore the uneven process of recovery and the daily realities of living with mental illness. Bloomsbury identifies this edition as a first edition with 224 pages, and listings consistently present it as an English-language paperback published by Bloomsbury UK. The work is framed as a continuation of the author’s earlier memoir, maintaining the same intimate, conversational structure that made the first book widely read. Across bookseller listings, it is described as a sequel and as further conversations with her psychiatrist, indicating that the narrative focuses on ongoing treatment, emotional conflict, and the author’s attempt to make sense of ordinary life while struggling with persistent distress. Because the available search results are limited to retailer and publisher metadata, detailed plot and thematic information beyond this framing is not fully available here, but the book is clearly positioned as a personal mental-health memoir in the same vein as its predecessor.
