Description
A young Japanese man seeks refuge in a unique dwelling after losing his job and home. He attempts to rebuild his identity with only a cat and cello for company, but the presence of a menacing yokai threatens to disrupt his fragile state. As he struggles to maintain his sanity, Jayne Joso's poignant prose explores themes of loss, identity, and the human condition. This powerful and thought-provoking novel has received recognition from the Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation Award. With its haunting and introspective tone, My Falling Down House is a deeply moving read that invites readers to reflect on their own experiences of displacement and self-discovery.
