Beskrivelse
From acclaimed Japanese author Randy Taguchi come four unforgettable stories of redemption, discovery, loss, and remembrance anchored by one of the worlds holiest peaks. Mount Fuji has been a source of spiritual inspiration since it was first ascended by a monk over a millennium ago.Blue Summit introduces a former cult member struggling to maintain his escape from a mountain monastery, seeking solace in the fluorescent lights of the convenience store he manages. In Sea of Trees, three teenage boys who share a fascination with the metaphysical confront the startling realities of death and despair on their final adventure together before parting ways for different schools. Jamila chronicles a privileged young mans descent into disillusionment as he works with a compulsive hoarder to clear her mess. And in Child of Light, a nurse struggles as she comes to terms with her role in the oft-brutal cycle of birth, life, and death.Throughout the stories, Mount Fuji stands sentinel even as it fades in and out of viewwatching and remembering as it always has.
