I really loved the book and the window it presented into Japanese customs and culture before and after the cultural revolution! (aprox 1850-1920)
The only thing that made it 4 stars for me was it's lesbian theme. I would have thought at that time period such relationship would have been forbidden in Japan, and certainly difficult in USA.

Over all it was a worthy read that I would recommend!

I am giving this audio book FIVE stars. I enjoyed the story immensely plus the reader was just excellent. Japanese culture and living predominant in this story along with bisexuality but with the latter not overly much. I really, really liked this story.
