A review by coffeebooksrepeat
Lizard by Banana Yoshimoto

5.0

These stories of guilt, of dancing DNAs, of river bridges, of losing and later (re)discovering spirituality, and bringing home a huge jar of kimchee show relatable circumstances of adults searching for things that truly matter while facing real world challenges in urban cities.

Reading this tiny book about experiences, trauma, healing, and becoming was satisfying but at the same time frustrating because I wanted a couple of stories to be a bit longer, a full novel even.

While I usually rate my books with coffee, I’d rate this one differently. Giving this wonderful little gem 4 huge jars of homemade kimchee.
