HOUSEHOLD STORIES/Katei Monogatari

This is a love story with a difference.Love, life, loss. . . most of us experience it all. Yet this is not a relationship between two lovers; nor even between two people. "A love story with a difference" is about an intense relationship. . . with a house. A house in Japan. Here the author describes in intricate and loving detail the years she spent in the Eastern-Western-style house that she made her home. She leads you on a fascinating and increasingly urgent journey through the interior, and the life lived within its four walls."Because we may not be here much longer, and even if we stay in Japan, life is shifting, the world in transition, and I want to remember.Remember it all."
