Strange Weather in Tokyo by Hiromi Kawakami

Strange Weather in Tokyo by Hiromi Kawakami

Tsukiko is thirty-eight, lives alone, and drinks at the same counter most evenings. One night the man beside her turns out to be her old Japanese teacher from school. She never learns his first name and calls him Sensei for the rest of the book.

They meet by accident, then on purpose, over years — mushroom hunting, a cherry blossom party, an argument about baseball. Kawakami writes loneliness and its slow easing entirely through food and weather, and the age gap is treated with a matter-of-factness that makes the ending land hard.

Winner of the Tanizaki Prize and one of the best-loved contemporary Japanese novels in translation.
