Kanae Minato

[Samuraisan]

If you fancy a dark japanese thriller, try this. I have read quite a few Japanese novels, modern day thrillers most, and I have to say, Japanese authors really are good at dark stories. This one kind of dissipates your preconception of Japanese teenagers and family life. How exact it is, leaves me in doubt, but nonetheless an interesting read. Something different. Apparently she won a lot of prizes in Japan with this first book.Try it.
