About the book… ![]() Instead we piece together his biography through the women that he falls in love with (or does he love them?). It would have been interesting to hear Mr Nishino’s life from his own point of view. That’s not to say that I don’t usually pay attention! But some books are just easy to absorb but this one moves quickly, there are lots of names, and if you’re not concentrating you’ll get left behind. This is a book to concentrate on when you’re reading. ![]() Here’s a great resource if you want to find out more. The book is translated from Japanese and I also wanted to highlight Women in Translation Month (which is now!). I rarely read translated works so I was really pleased to receive a copy of this book for a Readalong with The Tandem Collective. ![]()
