Krátky popis
A story of friendship and family secrets in 1970s Japan, from the
prizewinning author of The Memory Police.After the death of her
father, twelve-year-old Tomoko is sent to live for a year with her
uncle in the coastal town of Ashiya. It is a year which will change
her life.The 1970s are bringing changes to Japan and her uncle's
magnificent colonial mansion opens up a new and unfamiliar world
for Tomoko, its sprawling gardens are even home to a pygmy hippo
the family keeps as a pet. Tomoko finds her relatives equally
exotic and beguiling and her growing friendship with her cousin
Mina draws her into an intoxicating world full of secret crushes
and elaborate storytelling.As the two girls share confidences their
eyes are opened to the complications of the adult world. Tomoko’s
understanding of her uncle’s mysterious absences, her grandmother’s
wartime experiences and her aunt’s unhappiness will all come into
clearer focus as she and Mina build an enduring bond. Rich with the
magic and mystery of youth, Mina’s Matchbox is an evocative
snapshot of a moment frozen in time, and a striking depiction of a
family on the edge of collapse.
