loved this so much - i usually struggle with the pace of short stories but this collection was a dream to read. beautiful prose with so much care in the translation 

On bright spring days, the sea is the blue of light inside a sapphire, or white like milk, and as the sun goes down, the mountains glow like molten embers.
