Description
From Catfish Rolling's Clara Kumagai, a second novel full of longing, love, and heartbreak, inspired by Puccini's Madame Butterfly.
17-year-old Adam has just broken up with his boyfriend Evan and is not looking forward to the excruciating awkwardness at school for the rest of term, or a whole summer stuck at home with his dad, stepmum, and baby brother, Benji. But then Adam discovers a diary in some boxes in the attic and is quickly enthralled by its poignant story.
The entries were written by a young woman in Nagasaki in 1911. Adam is enraptured by her life and loves, becoming totally absorbed in her story. Then he starts to be haunted by her ghostly presence.
