May You Have Delicious Meals
byJunko Takase, Morgan Giles (Translator)
Sharlene Teo, author of PONTISo bracing, so strange and humane . . . I loved it.
Hiromi Kawakami, author of STRANGE WEATHER IN TOKYOAshikawa and Nitani stole my heart . . . funny . . . All the people in this novel are alive. And because they are, they contradict themselves, they waver, they have odd moments and moments when they’re really together. Though they are fictional creations, the author has little hold over them, and there are times when I think they do things the author never imagined
Natalie Sue, bestselling author of I HOPE THIS FINDS YOU WELLA witty and sharp exploration of office culture through food. Takase perfectly captures the unsaid dynamics with nuance and honesty. I devoured it.
The BooksellerThis witty novel captures the absurdities of modern office life
