Actualmente no hay Conversaciones sobre este libro. 3.5 stars rounded up-- I thought the premises of the stories were really really interesting and creative. The execution was pretty good but I think there is a lot of room to grow, at the same time. I didn't like the dead dog. That made me sad. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
"A housewife takes up bodybuilding and sees radical changes to her physique, which her workaholic husband fails to notice. A boy waits at a bus stop, mocking commuters struggling to keep their umbrellas open in a typhoon, until an old man shows him that they hold the secret to flying. A saleswoman in a clothing boutique waits endlessly on a customer who won't come out of the fitting room, and who may or may not be human. A newlywed notices that her spouse's features are beginning to slide around his face to match her own. In these eleven stories, the individuals who lift the curtains of their orderly homes and workplaces are confronted with the bizarre, the grotesque, the fantastic, the alien--and find a doorway to liberation. The English-language debut of one of Japan's most fearlessly inventive young writers" -- Back cover. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
