Breasts and Eggs — Mieko Kawakami
$29.50
International Bestseller · Winner of the Akutagawa Prize · Named a Best Book of the Year by TIME, The Guardian, and Vogue
Three women — a struggling writer, her outspoken sister, and a daughter caught in between — navigate womanhood, aging, and identity in modern-day Japan. Breasts and Eggs is intimate and quietly revolutionary, exploring what it means to have (or not have) a body, a voice, and a choice.
Kawakami’s prose is precise and piercing, filled with small details that stay with you long after you close the book.
