Cherry Whip: Twentieth Anniversary Edition - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

"Originally released 20 years ago, this superb novel returns in a well-deserved reissue... Hiroshi’s recovery, family dynamics, and inner life are all fascinatingly described in rich detail. This edition features a new foreword and afterword, offering insightful context on how the author’s own time in Japan inspired this irreverent, poignant, and wondrously odd tale."
— Alexander Moran, Booklist (starred review)

The funny and tragic story of a Japanese jazz musician's first encounter with America, presented here in its 20th Anniversary edition. A young man who overthinks everything but doesn't understand himself, Hiroshi encounters unexpected adversity and faces destruction unless he can figure out who he really is. Hiroshi's sturggle for self-acceptance is a tale with unviversal resonance.

The 20th Anniversary edition of a novel whose reputation has continued to grow over the years.
