It tells the story of three women: the thirty-year-old Natsu, her older sister, Makiko, and Makiko's daughter, Midoriko. Makiko has traveled to Tokyo in search of an affordable breast enhancement procedure. She is accompanied by Midoriko, who has recently grown silent, finding herself unable to voice the vague yet overwhelming pressures associated with growing up. Her silence proves a catalyst for each woman to confront her fears and frustrations. On another hot summer's day ten years later, Natsu, on a journey back to her native city, struggles with her own indeterminate identity as she confronts anxieties about growing old alone and childless" -- $c Amazon. 546 $a Translated from the Japanese. 650 0 $a Women $z Japan $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women $x Identity $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Augmentation mammaplasty $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Puberty $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Aging $x Psychological aspects $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Japan $v Fiction. 700 1 $a Bett, Sam, $d 1986- $e translator. 700 1 $a Boyd, David $q (David G.), $e translator. 941 $a 4 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240305043023.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909061238.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20220518024311.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20200502010421.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=379D0D528C3A11EAB4A2F82B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
