Overview
This masterful collection from Tomoka Shibasaki, author of the acclaimed Spring Garden, pushes the short story form to a new level.
In this ground-breaking story collection, people come together to share pieces of their lives, then part. We meet the women who share a house after the outbreak of war before parting once it is over; the man who lives in a succession of rooftop apartments; the diverging lives of two brothers who are raised as latch-key kids by factory workers; the old ramen restaurant that endures despite the demolition of all surrounding buildings; people who watch a new type of spaceship lift off from a pier that once belonged to an island resort, and more.
These 34 tales from all over the planet have the compulsive power of news reports, narrated in a crisp yet almost allegorical style.
