Synopsis
Hues of Tokyo is a haunting collection of short stories with a backdrop of one of the world's most interesting cities. As you travel with visitors and natives through the streets of Tokyo, you will puzzle through the surreal encounter of a first time visitor to Tokyo, join a salary man who is looking for life beyond the company, or hold your breath as a young girl tries to find a way out of a traumatic abuse cycle. Additional tales speak to lost love, the blindness of greed and redemption of fair play, and the loss of an old friend to modern encroachment. Several provocative stories look to Japan's history for inspiration in today's fast-paced society. Hues of Tokyo can be read straight through, as a whole work with interlocking themes, or each story can be cherished individually as you enter the world of a complex city of intrigue and history. However you approach the network of stories, you will be entertained by whimsical tales that both amuse and provoke deep thought about the relationships among past, present, and future-in Tokyo, and beyond.
Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (1,978)
- l***o (515)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseOne of my favorite stories is of How Peter Hurkos became psychic. I ordered the book from VK Rares and Classics. His packaging of the book was superior to most book sellers. He bubble-wrapped the book so that it was well protected and shipped it in a tight fitting mailing sleeve. The book arrived safely, and i am happy with it and VK Rares and Classics's service. I was also jappy with his pricing. The book was as described.
