Description:The first novel to appear in English by award-winning author Hiromi Ito explores the absurdities, complexities, and challenges experienced by a woman caring for her two families: her husband and daughters in California and her aging parents in Japan. As the narrator shuttles back and forth between these two starkly different cultures, she creates a powerful and entertaining narrative about what it means to live and die in a globalized society.Ito has been described as a “shaman of poetry” because of her skill in allowing the voices of others to ow through her. Here she enriches her semi-autobiographical novel by channeling myriad voices drawn from Japanese folklore, poetry, literature, and pop culture. The result is a generic chimera—part poetry, part prose, part epic—a unique, transnational, polyvocal mode of storytelling. One throughline isa series of memories associated with the Buddhist bodhisattva Jizo, who helps to remove the “thorns” of human suffering.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
