Synopsis
Set in Japan, 1939, an epic novel of tradition and change, of loss and renewal, and above all of the enduring strength of family ties, It is Tokyo in 1939. On the Street of a Thousand Blossoms, two orphaned brothers dream of a future firmly rooted in tradition. The older boy, Hiroshi, shows early signs of promise at the national obsession of sumo wrestling, while Kenji is fascinated by the art of Noh theater masks. But as the ripples of war spread to their quiet neighborhood, the brothers must put their dreams on hold--and forge their own paths in a new Japan. Meanwhile, the two young daughters of a renowned sumo master find their lives increasingly intertwined with the fortunes of their father's star pupil, Hiroshi. The Street of a Thousand Blossoms is a powerfully moving masterpiece about tradition and change, loss and renewal, and love and family from a glorious storyteller at the height of her powers., Gail Tsukiyama's The Street of a Thousand Blossoms is a powerfully moving masterpiece about tradition and change, loss and renewal, and love and family from a glorious storyteller at the height of her powers.

- l***s (23)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaI felt the description of the book was more optimistic than reality. The book is in good condition, but from the corners and the base of the spine, it is not in a "like new" condition. It did not manner to me given the price. The entire experience was good as the seller was quick in his communication and punctual to arrive at the agreed time.Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress (2002, PB) by Dai Sijie - LIKE NEW!
