Recenzii

Mining philosophy, science fiction and Japanese mythology to craft a mature, compelling story of loss and tragedy, Kumagai spins the tale of a Japan fractured in time by an earthquake caused by an infamous monster
An outstanding debut, this is a unique and ambitious story of grief and coming of age, woven around a rich backdrop of Japanese folklore, culture and magical realism.
Kumagai's exquisite debut moves effortlessly between lyrical reflections and contemporary teenage concerns
Excellent, evocative and thoughtful with genuine depth... I feel as if I'm in the hands of a writer who knows what she's doing
Sensational. Breathtakingly original and beautifully written. - Katya Balen, winner of the YOTO Carnegie Medal 2022
A beautifully written, engrossing story about love, grief, and the passing of time
An unforgettable debut... Kumagai's writing is elegant and consistently excellent, and her capacity for immersive world-building is incredibly impressive
With this book, Kumagai establishes herself as a powerful voice in YA fiction. I cannot recommend highly enough... an exquisitely crafted story of love, loss and belonging...sings with myth, mystery and the quest for connection. - Deirdre Sullivan, author of Savage Her Reply
This thought-provoking debut combines magical realism and Japanese myths with an exploration of grief, time and memory
Part thriller, part speculative fiction, this incredible debut, about an earthquake in Japan that fractures time itself, is beautifully written and beautifully presented
Sublime...a rewarding, thought-provoking read
