{"product_id":"manazuru-a-novel","title":"Manazuru: A Novel","description":"Startlingly restless and immaculately compact, Manazuru paints the portrait of a woman on the brink of her own memories and future.\nTwelve years have passed since Kei's husband, Rei, disappeared and she was left alone with her three-year-old daughter. Her new relationship with a married man--the antithesis of Rei--has brought her life to a numbing stasis, and her relationships with her mother and daughter have spilled into routine, day after day. Kei begins making repeated trips to the seaside town of Manazuru, a place that jogs her memory to a moment in time she can never quite locate. Her time there by the water encompasses years of unsteady footing and a developing urgency to find something.\nThrough a poetic style embracing the surreal and grotesque, a quiet tenderness emerges from these dark moments. Manazuru is a meditation on memory--a profound, precisely delineated exploration of the relationships between lovers and family members.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1640090185\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1640090185.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Kawakami, Hiromi|Emmerich, Michael\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
