With Bumiller’s intimate, beautifully written portrait of a middle-class Tokyo housewife, readers finally penetrate the mysteries of the Japanese people to see how they differ from us, and how they are alike.

“A rich, sustained look at real life in middle-class Tokyo….full of cultural insight…. Her discussions of [Japanese society] are clear, well-reported and skillfully interwoven with the portrait of Mariko”–Kyoko Mori, The New York Times Book Review
