Fault Lines by Emily Itami
4.0
Fault lines is an interesting story about a married women (Mizuki) and her life in Tokyo, Japan. She is not your traditional Japanese women that most stories depict. She is modern and is harshly judged for being that way.
It is also about her love for two men one she is married to and the other she has an affair with. Her Japanese values do come into play as she is a mother to two children. This keeps her bound to her husband (even though she is not happy) and the eventual end to her relationship with Kiyoshi.
I enjoyed reading about the culture and values of the Japanese and how some situations are the same no matter where you live. People are judgmental everywhere!
