Reading abroad

The Diving Pool, Yoko Ogawa

I’ve read The Housekeeper and the Professor by Yoko Ogawa which was a rich journey of the imagination, impossible to put down like sifting through leaves. These three novellas are equally well written, but for a reader who likes a little more sadness than I do. I love her writing, but these novellas kept twisting the knife. They’re disturbing and yet elegant. Reading
