A review by tigershout
Asleep by Banana Yoshimoto

3.0

I'm impressed with the translation, which is one of the better I've seen in a long time! I did like these stories, but found they were sometimes lacking in something, or finished rather abruptly, but I guess this is the nature of short stories. They are but a snippet of a time in life, or an event.

Still, this is a worthy read from Banana Yoshimoto, and I look forward to continuing my way through her work.
