Ninguno Actualmente no hay Conversaciones sobre este libro. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() A snow monkey and a cat Saru and Neko -two of the most engaging protagonists I've met in a while Every one of Mr. Saunders' characters has a life of their own, however;I cared about each. Valley of Orchids had me immediately, opening with a haiku. In a setting of mythic Japan populated with mythic characters, Saunders weaves a well-crafted tale of growth and discovery Hopefully, the second book at least meets the same level. I look forward to continuing rge journey. '“Neko is my name. And just like you, there’s only one of me. It’s a long and lonely life, but beautiful at times. There’s no real name for what we are, but humans, ever grandiloquent, have been known to call us gods. Not the ethereal spirits of the land the priests venerate, but living breathing gods, misunderstood but true. In my wandering, I’ve met others. A crow, a turtle and rat—to name but a few. It’s possible you’re the last. I haven’t met a newborn in over fifty years.” She licked her paw and washed her face. “Now tell me, snow monkey. Do you have a name?” Saru started writing with his paw in the dirt.' sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
