Krátky popis
A tale of modern Japan and old-fashioned romance. 'Enchanting,
moving and funny in equal measure, this compelling love story is
expertly crafted against a backdrop of modern Japanese culture'
StylistTsukiko is in her late 30s and living alone when one night
she happens to meet one of her former high school teachers,
'Sensei', in a bar. He is at least thirty years her senior, retired
and, she presumes, a widower.After this initial encounter, the pair
continue to meet occasionally to share food and drink sake, and as
the seasons pass - from spring cherry blossom to autumnal mushrooms
- Tsukiko and Sensei come to develop a hesitant intimacy which
tilts awkwardly and poignantly into love. Strange Weather in Tokyo
is perfectly constructed, warmly funny and deeply moving. This
edition contains the bonus story, 'Parade', which imagines an
ordinary day in the lives of this unusual couple.'A dream-like
spell of a novel, full of humour, sadness, warmth and tremendous
subtlety. I read this in one sitting and I think it will haunt me
for a long time' Amy Sackville 'Kawakami transforms an affecting
cross-generational romance into an exquisite poem of time and
mutability.... Delicate and haunting' Independent
