This book is about a young American woman, Barbara Jefferson, who goes to Japan to teach at a Tokyo university and the relationship she has with a Japanese woman who is her mentor and a friend. It also tells about the young woman's relationship with a young Japanese man, Seiji, and how that relationship plays a part in her mentor's life. As I used to work for an US community college Japanese programs, I enjoyed the read about the Japanese culture. Although it was a bit slow in the parts about Barbara's relationshipe with Seiji. Overall, I would recommend this book to a friend!
