Book Description
Hayama returned to her home country to leave her infant son in the care of his father before leaving once more a month later to continue chasing her dreams, which she viewed as the fulfillment of her life. Robin was forced to quit his job because he couldn't find a reliable babysitter, and no family wanted the added responsibility of caring for a newborn. After some time had passed, Hayama and Robin split up, and Hayama found another man. Jobless, heartbroken, with dignity lost, and with a four-month-old son to care for, Robin attempted to live with pride, which resulted in more than what he believed was correct. I, who was hurt and broken, ended up in a government hospital one night. Koji had a high fever. The hospital was free, but the medicine was not, and I had run out of money. The doctor advised me to purchase certain medications as Koji would likely need to stay in the hospital for one or two days, or even longer if necessary. The doctor examining my appearance inquires if I have any money for medicine. ‘’No. Right now, I don't have any money. Isn't this a public hospital, and isn't the medicine free?" I, on the verge of tears, inquired. "The facility and the doctor's fee are free, but the medicine is not. We must confine your son for further examination. Are you the one who looks after him?" The doctor inquired. ''Yes..'' I replied quietly. "You require assistance. You need someone to keep an eye on him while you go out to buy medicine, or someone to do it for you. What happened to the baby's mother?" The doctor asked.

Eat a Peach

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the chef behind Momofuku and star of Netflix’s Ugly Delicious—an intimate account of the making of a chef, the story of the modern restaurant world that he helped shape, and how he discovered that success can be much harder to understand than failure. ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: NPR, Fortune, Parade, The New York Public Library, Garden & Gun In 2004, Momofuku Noodle Bar opened in a tiny, stark space in Manhattan’s East Village. Its young chef-owner, David Chang, worked the line, serving ramen and pork buns to a mix of fellow restaurant cooks and confused diners whose idea of ramen was instant noodles in Styrofoam cups. It would have been impossible to know it at the time—and certainly Chang would have bet against himself—but he, who had failed at almost every endeavor in his life, was about to become one of the most influential chefs of his generation, driven by the question, “What if the underground could become the mainstream?” Chang grew up the youngest son of a deeply religious Korean American family in Virginia. Graduating college aimless and depressed, he fled the States for Japan, hoping to find some sense of belonging. While teaching English in a backwater town, he experienced the highs of his first full-blown manic episode, and began to think that the cooking and sharing of food could give him both purpose and agency in his life. Full of grace, candor, grit, and humor, Eat a Peach chronicles Chang’s switchback path. He lays bare his mistakes and wonders about his extraordinary luck as he recounts the improbable series of events that led him to the top of his profession. He wrestles with his lifelong feelings of otherness and inadequacy, explores the mental illness that almost killed him, and finds hope in the shared value of deliciousness. Along the way, Chang gives us a penetrating look at restaurant life, in which he balances his deep love for the kitchen with unflinching honesty about the industry’s history of brutishness and its uncertain future.

Noriko is just getting started as a junior reporter for the Asagake Times. She wants to cover the hard-hitting issues, like world affairs and politics, but does she have the smarts for it? Thankfully, her overbearing and math-minded boss, Mr. Seki, is here to teach her how to analyze her stories with a mathematical eye.

Persona
Author: Naoki Inose
Publisher: Stone Bridge Press
ISBN: 1611725240
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 866
Book Description
Yukio Mishima (b. 1925) was a brilliant writer and intellectual whose relentless obsession with beauty, purity, and patriotism ended in his astonishing self-disembowelment and decapitation in downtown Tokyo in 1970. Nominated for the Nobel Prize, Mishima was the best-known novelist of his time (works like Confessions of a Mask and The Temple of the Golden Pavilion are still in print in English), and his legacy—his persona—is still honored and puzzled over. Who was Yukio Mishima really? This, the first full biography to appear in English in almost forty years, traces Mishima's trajectory from a sickly boy named Kimitake Hiraoka to a hard-bodied student of martial arts. In detail it examines his family life, the wartime years, and his emergence, then fame, as a writer and advocate for traditional values. Revealed here are all the personalities and conflicts and sometimes petty backbiting that shaped the culture of postwar literary Japan. Working entirely from primary sources and material unavailable to other biographers, author Naoki Inose and translator Hiroaki Sato together have produced a monumental work that covers much new ground in unprecedented depth. Using interviews, social and psychological analysis, and close reading of novels and essays, Persona removes the mask that Mishima so artfully created to disguise his true self. Naoki Inose, currently vice governor of Tokyo, has also written biographies of writers Kikuchi Kan and Osamu Dazai. New York–based Hiroaki Sato is an award-winning translator of classical and modern Japanese poetry, and also translated Mishima's novel Silk and Insight.
