Manazuru – A Novel
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Hironi Kawakami
€14.90 🚗+4.50
Manazuru is a mysterious book, filled with a dreamlike mood, shifting realities. Something very soft and gentle pervades it. Still it’s very realistic. The story is told by Kei, a young woman who lives with her daughter and her mother in an apartment in Tokio.
Startlingly restless and immaculately compact, Manazuru paints the portrait of a woman on the brink of her own memories and future. Twelve 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.
Through 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.
