SYNOPSIS
Banana Yoshimoto's novels have made her a sensation in Japan and all over the world, and Kitchen, the dazzling English-language debut that is still her best-loved book, is an enchantingly original and deeply affecting book about mothers, love, tragedy, and the power of the kitchen and home in the lives of a pair of free-spirited young women in contemporary Japan.
Mikage, the heroine of Kitchen, is an orphan raised by her grandmother, who has passed away. Grieving, she is taken in by her friend Yoichi and his mother (who was once his father), Eriko.
As the three of them form an improvised family that soon weathers its own tragic losses, Yoshimoto spins a lovely, evocative tale that recalls early Marguerite Duras.
Kitchen and its companion story, "Moonlight Shadow," are elegant tales whose seeming simplicity is the ruse of a writer whose voice echoes in the mind and the soul.

REVIEWS
Leitura rápida e fácil!
Ana Montenegro
É um livro de leitura rápida e fácil, que aborda temas relacionados com a perda, e que toca numa série de temas relevantes e sensíveis. Gostei bastante da leitura, mas não é um livro memorável. É um bom "limpa-palato", para ler entre livros mais longos e pesados.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Banana Yoshimoto
Yoshimoto Mahoko nasceu em 1964, filha de Yoshimoto Takaaki, aka Ryumei, provavelmente o filósofo e crítico mais importante e influente, que emergiu nos anos 60.
Além de ter um pai famoso, a sua irmã, a cartoonista Haruno Yoiko, é também uma figura pública.
Yoshimoto cresceu numa família liberal, de esquerda e com significativamente mais liberdade que uma típica jovem japonesa. Ainda durante o liceu, Yoshimoto foi viver com o namorado.
Depois de terminar a licenciatura no departamento de Literatura, do Nihon University's Art College, Mahoko adopta, deliberadamente, o pseudónimo andrógino Banana e começa a escrever de forma convicta. Escreve os seus primeiros livros enquanto trabalha como empregada de balcão em Tóquio.
Uma das maiores influências na sua escrita, tanto em estilo como conteúdo, é o trabalho de Stephen King (particularmente nas histórias que não são de terror), do qual é admiradora. Mais tarde procurou inspiração também em Truman Capote e Isaac Bashevis Singer.
