I loved this epic literary novel from the very first pages.

A well-written, immersive narrative which informs about geopolitical issues through characters I really cared about.

From post-WW2 Koreans in Japan, through the late C20th US immigrant experience, to today.

All Fours (Miranda July, 2024)

Had been circling this one for a while, perhaps waiting for the right moment to read it. Not sure it was now - but the book certainly deserves all the attention it got. An important, at times uneasy, read.
