Radical, untamed, always unexpected: a thrilling, can't-look-away collection of stories from the author of the internationally bestselling phenomenon Convenience Store Woman
A bestselling literary sensation, SAYAKA MURATA has won all of Japan's major literary prizes, and been named a Vogue Woman of the Year. Murata spent eighteen years working part-time in convenience stores before the success of Convenience Store Woman afforded her the freedom to write full time. She is the author of Earthlings and Convenience Store Woman, which has sold more than a million copies in Japan alone and been translated into twenty-three languages worldwide.
These stories laid complete claim to me. Ominous and charming.
Brilliantly sad. There is not one word wasted here. I lost
significant sleep over this collection
*Kiley Reid, author of Such a Fun Age*

Ceremony reminds us how fragile we - and the society we take for
granted - really are
*New Internationalist*
Strangely believable, easy to read and hard to forget
*Guardian*
