Fiction
Verdict: Read it?
This book confused the hell out of me. A japanese woman living in England with a daughter are reminiscing about her other daughter, who had committed suicide. We then jump back to an earlier time when they lived in Japan. The main character was expecting and has a series of encounters with a decidedly weird neighbor and her unsupervised child.
I kept waiting for something to happen to the irresponsible parent and child, but other than trying to marry someone and move away....nothing much happens with them. I also did not get the opening chapter nor what that had to do with the rest of the book.
Read it and maybe it will make sense to you.
