Yaichi is a work-at-home suburban dad in contemporary Tokyo;
formerly married to Natsuki, father to their young daughter, Kana.
Their lives suddenly change with the arrival at their doorstep of a
hulking, affable Canadian named Mike Flanagan, who declares himself
the widower of Yaichi's estranged gay twin, Ryoji. Mike is on a
quest to explore Ryoji's past, and the family reluctantly but
dutifully takes him in. What follows is an unprecedented and
heartbreaking look at the state of a largely still-closeted
Japanese gay culture: how it's been affected by the West, and how
the next generation can change the preconceptions about it and
prejudices against it. (Please note: This book is a traditional
work of manga, and reads back to front and right to left.)
