So refreshing! I am sincerely asking myself why it took me so long to pick up on this quiet masterpiece… and in these days pages I cannot stop reading it. I was wondering why I am disconnecting from reality just to read Sasameyuki and it appears to me that is for its Tolstoy-like family epopea combined with the sweetest Japanese reflections on the immanence of time. Just GREAT.
