Amazing to see this Japanese-to-English short story, by Kaori Ekuni, get some more love! The Japanese original text is also included on the page. CW: DV. Happy January in Japan! #xl8
Today I’ll be reading Kaori Ekuni’s “Lunch Ticket” (translated by Sharni Wilson), compliments of Lunch Ticket.
Ekuni is probably best known in English for her novel Twinkle Twinkle (trans. Emi Shimokawa), about an asexual woman married to a gay man partnered with someone else. It’s a great read.
