Description
This book is a compilation of interviews with Japanese women about their lives and relationships. The interviews were conducted in Japanese, but have been translated into English. The book provides a unique look into Japanese culture and language, as well as the daily communication of Japanese women.
This approachable and absorbing book offers a unique window into Japanese culture and language. Highlighting the overlooked world of the _silent majority,_ the housewives and mothers who are the mainstay of Japanese society, this work tells the stories of ordinary women in their own voices. An annotated translation of a Japanese bestseller, the volume explores the daily communication of Japanese women and what their words tell us about their relationships and lives in a globalized, postindustrial, yet still often male-dominated Japan.
