genius’ - Naoise Dolan, author of Exciting Times From
international literary sensation Mieko Kawakami comes All the
Lovers in the Night, an extraordinary, deeply moving and insightful
story set in contemporary Tokyo. Fuyuko Irie is a freelance
proofreader in her thirties. Living alone and unable to form
meaningful relationships, she has little contact with anyone other
than her colleagues. But a chance encounter with a man named
Mitsutsuka awakens something new in her. As Fuyuko starts to see
the world in a different light, painful memories from her past
begin to resurface. Fuyuko needs to be loved, to be heard and to be
seen. But living in a small world of her own making, will she find
the strength to bring down the walls that surround her? Pulsing and
poetic, modern and shocking, this is an unforgettable novel from
Japan’s most exciting writer. All the Lovers in the Night is
translated from the Japanese by Sam Bett and David Boyd.
