From the author of 'My Falling Down House' set in Tokyo comes 'Japan Stories'.Jayne Joso's new book is a collection of stories and short fiction set in Japan. Each is centred on a particular character - a sinister museum curator, a son caring for his dementia-struck father, a young woman who returns to haunt her killer - and tells a compelling story about them. This new work also includes Joso's stories, 'I'm not David Bowie' and 'Maru-chan' an homage to Yayoi Kusuma. Together, these short narratives become a mosaic of life in contemporary Japan, its people, its society, its thinking and character. 'Japan Stories' provides a window into a country we would all love to know more deeply.
