Demonstrating again the artful simplicity and depth of her vision,
Banana Yoshimoto reestablishes her place as a writer of
international stature in a book that may be her most delightful
since Kitchen. In Asleep, Yoshimoto spins the stories of three
young women bewitched into a spiritual sleep. One, mourning for a
lost lover, finds herself sleepwalking at night. Another, who has
embarked on a relationship with a man whose wife is in a coma,
finds herself suddenly unable to stay awake. A third finds her
sleep haunted by a woman against whom she was once pitted in a love
triangle. Sly and mystical as a ghost story, with a touch of
Kafkaesque surrealism, Asleep is an enchanting new book from one of
the best writers in contemporary international fiction.
