90 classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin BooksKikuji has been invited to a tea ceremony by a mistress of his dead father, only to find that the mistress’ rival and successor is also present. He falls for her, with devastating consequences.

In this delicate novella he uses the ceremony as a powerful vehicle for loneliness, yearning and loss of history.
