In Meiji-era Japan, sixteen-year-old Maria wishes she could change her appearance. If only her eyes and hair were different, maybe she wouldn’t be met with such fear, and maybe her own mother wouldn't be so ashamed of her.

But when Maria encounters a handsome yet mischievous boy named Rintarou, her understanding of beauty—and herself—begins to change. To him, Maria’s not just pretty; she’s straight out of a fairy tale!

A historical romance unfolds on the streets of Yokohama in Golden Japanesque: A Splendid Yokohama Romance, Vol. 1.
