About This Novel

The new work of female writer Miura Shion, who won the Naoki Prize and the Honya Grand Prize, pays tribute to the classic work "Snow" by Junichiro Tanizaki. A story about life in Tokyo that transcends loneliness. In an old Western-style building in Suginami District, Tokyo, lived the Makita family, mother and daughter, and two tenants. Divorced mother, older unmarried daughter, independent and vicious Yukino, and Taemi who was hurt by a domestic violence man. They have very different personalities and different life experiences, but they form an incredible emotional connection in this house. Everyone is not perfect, but they protect each other in the days like water and give each other the rare warmth in this lonely city. Until an unexpected discovery allowed them to uncover the mysterious past... Focusing on women's survival rules and loved ones across blood lines, the delicate and warm emotions blended with the cold and ruthless city, showing the independence and bravery of Tokyo women.
