Requests:  0 Summary:  "In this witty and exuberant collection of linked stories, Aoko Matsuda takes the rich, millenia-old tradition of Japanese folktales-shapeshifting wives and foxes, magical trees and wells-and wholly reinvents them, presenting a world in which humans are consoled, guided, challenged, and transformed by the only sometimes visible forces that surround them. A busybody aunt who disapproves of hair removal; a pair of door-to-door saleswomen hawking portable lanterns; a cheerful lover who visits every night to take a luxurious bath; a silent house-caller who babysits and cleans while a single mother is out working. Where the Wild Ladies Are is populated by these and many other spirited women-who also happen to be ghosts. This is a realm in which jealousy, stubbornness, and other excessive "feminine" passions are not to be feared or suppressed, but rather cultivated; and, chances are, a man named Mr. Tei will notice your talents and recruit you, dead or alive (preferably dead), to join his mysterious company."--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Aiea Public Library Adult Fiction Matsuda   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Fiction Matsuda   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Fiction Matsuda   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Matsuda   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Fiction Matsuda   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Matsuda   Checked out 07/13/2024 Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Science Fiction Matsuda Fantasy Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Matsuda   Checked out 07/12/2024 Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Matsuda   Checked out 07/13/2024 Add Copy to MyList Pahala P/S Library Adult Fiction Matsuda   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
