Valentina’s Reviews > The Seabird of Sanematsu > Status Update

Is this a plot I am seeing here? I am usually not a fan of problems being mainly caused by bad communication but considering the very indirect speech that is so prevalent in Japan (and pre-Meiji Japan was on another level in this regard), this actually does make sense since one incorrectly chosen word really could be the end of your life, I guess...

Plot? What plot?
Our good Daimyō Sanematsu is putting his entire province on hold because he is? In love? Or in lust?
I am really enjoying this though!

I decided to re-read this since I can't remember anything that happens in this book. Also, I'm going to give the plot a fair chance this time since I remember definitely not having read this for the plot the last time.
