Set in Japan just before WWII, Tsukiyama's novel tells of a young Chinese man's encounters with four locals while he recuperates from tuberculosis.

I don't remember anything spectacular from this book, but I enjoyed reading about the time period and Japanese setting. It was a very quick read - a fine book to pass the time.
