Elizabeth O' Connor finds herself in Japan, where she is reduced to
the status of a company wife, instead of the revered teacher she
was in Hong Kong. She is determined to find an escape route--even
if it means defying socially entrenched conventions. Tokyo is a
mysterious, complex city which could easily sap the identity of a
foreign woman, especially if her husband feels it his duty to
embrace the local culture! Elizabeth is not used to being
insignificant or isolated. The Ginza night life is exciting for
those who have expense accounts. Elizabeth does not. She lives in a
road without a name in a middle class area, surrounded by her three
young children and an elderly, spiteful maid. However, Elizabeth
refuses to accept the situation and carefully organizes a plan of
action. The tone of the book is ironical, descriptive and sometimes
erotic. Elizabeth's bizarre adventures are often amusing and
occasionally romantic, but. our resourceful heroine prevails and
has no regrets.
