Эндрю О'Коннор Tuvalu
ISBN: 9781741148718 Год издания: 2006 Издательство: Allen & Unwin Язык: Английский Аннотация
A love story of sorts, Tuvalu tells the story of Noah Tuttle, who is glumly and aimlessly living a half kind of life in a cheap rundown hostel in the seamier margins of Tokyo, a place overrun with feral cats and cockroaches. He teaches mediocre English to disinterested students, sleeps with his girlfriend, Tilly, when she's around, drinks beer when he can afford it, and generally avoids other people and their expectations. Nothing much happens to him - until, that is, he meets the wealthy, captivating and completely self-absorbed Mami Kaketa, a supremely selfish creature who leaves people like so much litter in her wake, so brazen and capricious she should come with a health warning.
A blackly funny, inconclusive and strangely beguiling story of ennui, escape, exile and dreams.
