A real page-turner.’ The Journal‘A stunning collection.’ Nihon Distractions 'Colorful, charming, and highly entertaining.' Contemporary Japanese Literature. ‘The real power of this volume to do good in a region still striving to return to normality is its ability to enchant and intrigue — reminding us how much more there is to Tohoku than its recent, very public suffering. This deftly translated, entertaining, yet often poignant volume showcases the region’s rich cultural heritage. It feels like a promise that a community that has survived so much will survive this latest disaster.’ The Japan Times As a young man Inoue lived in Kamaishi, on the coast of North East Japan, an area that was to be devastated by the tsunami of 2011. This book reflects the author’s own experience of Kamaishi, its contemporary history, and the long traditions of story-telling in the region.
