Product Description
A completely heartwarming novel about the power of books and connection between generations, perfect for fans of The Lost Bookshop. FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE CAT AND THE CITY, A BBC RADIO 2 BOOK CLUB PICK 'Vibrant and accomplished' David Mitchell, on The Cat and the City ‘Every book worm would love this’ Glamour ‘A love letter to Japanese culture’ Country & Town House Flo is sick of Tokyo. Suffering from a crisis in confidence, she is stuck in a rut, her translation work has dried up and she's in a relationship that's run its course. That's until she stumbles upon a mysterious book left by a fellow passenger on the Tokyo Subway. From the very first page, Flo is transformed and immediately feels compelled to translate this forgotten novel, a decision which sets her on a path that will change her life. As Flo follows the characters across a year in rural Japan, through the ups and downs of the pair's burgeoning relationship, she quickly realises that she needs to venture outside the pages of the book to track down its elusive author. And, as the two protagonists reveal themselves to have more in common with her life than first meets the eye, the lines between text and translator converge, and it soon becomes clear that Flo’s journey is just beginning… Readers have fallen in love with Four Seasons in Japan: ‘My favourite novel, a delight for lovers of Japan… Ingenious’ David Abulafia, author of The Boundless Sea ‘A gentle, tender and thoughtful book …crafted in such a way that you want to savour every chapter’ Culturefly ‘What a thrill to be transported to Japan… Warm, wise, and exquisitely written’ Violet Kupersmith, author of Build Your House Around My Body ‘A book about a book!!
