O knihe
Elizabeth O' Connor finds herself in Japan, where she is reduced to the status of a company wife, instead of the revered teacher she was in Hong Kong. She is determined to find an escape route--even if it means defying socially entrenched conventions.
Tokyo is a mysterious, complex city which could easily sap the identity of a foreign woman, especially if her husband feels it his duty to embrace the local culture! Elizabeth is not used to being insignificant or isolated. The Ginza night life is exciting for those who have expense accounts. Elizabeth does not. She lives in a road without a name in a middle class area, surrounded by her three young children and an elderly, spiteful maid. However, Elizabeth refuses to accept the situation and carefully organizes a plan of action.
The tone of the book is ironical, descriptive and sometimes erotic. Elizabeth's bizarre adventures are often amusing and occasionally romantic, but. our resourceful heroine prevails and has no regrets.
