It tells the story of three women: the thirty-year-old Natsu, her older sister, Makiko, and Makiko's daughter, Midoriko. Makiko has traveled to Tokyo in search of an affordable breast enhancement procedure. She is accompanied by Midoriko, who has recently grown silent, finding herself unable to voice the vague yet overwhelming pressures associated with growing up. Her silence proves a catalyst for each woman to confront her fears and frustrations. On another hot summer's day ten years later, Natsu, on a journey back to her native city, struggles with her own indeterminate identity as she confronts anxieties about growing old alone and childless" --   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Fiction Kawakami Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Kawakami Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Kawakami Checked out 06/21/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Kawakami Checked out 06/29/2024 Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Fiction Kawakami Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
