All the Lovers in the Night

Introspective journey through Tokyo's emotional undercurrents.

If you're someone who's drawn to the intersection of the deeply personal and the universal, "All the Lovers in the Night" is calling your name. Mieko Kawakami masterfully crafts Fuyuko's story to resonate with anyone who's ever felt lost in their own life, offering a narrative that is both intimate and illuminating. It's a literary escape that could very well mirror your own search for connection in a dissonant world.

Description

From literary sensation and International Booker Prize-shortlisted author Mieko Kawakami, the bestselling author of Breasts and Eggs and Heaven, comes All the Lovers in the Night, an extraordinary, deeply moving and insightful story set in contemporary Tokyo. Fuyuko Irie is a freelance proofreader in her thirties. Living alone in an overwhelming city and unable to form meaningful relationships, she has little contact with anyone other than her colleague, Hijiri. But a chance encounter with a man named Mitsutsuka awakens something new in her. Through their weekly meetings, Fuyuko starts to see the world in a different light and still, painful memories from her past begin to resurface. As Fuyuko realizes she exists in a small world of her own making she begins to push at her own boundaries. But will she find the strength to bring down the walls that surround her? Pulsing and poetic, modern and shocking, this is an unforgettable novel from Japan’s most exciting writer.
