In a house on a suburban street in Nagasaki, meteorologist Shimura Kobo lives quietly on his own. Or so he believes.Food begins to go missing. Perturbed by this threat to his orderly life, Shimura sets up a webcam to monitor his home. But though eager to identify his intruder, is Shimura really prepared for what the camera will reveal? This prize-winning novel is a heart-rending tale of alienation in the modern world.
'Elegantly, without ever raising his voice, Eric Faye considers guilt, memory, our fragile sense of how to behave, and the selfishness of societies.' L'Express 'Speaks directly to the heart' Le Monde 'Eric Faye is a rare talent' Le Figaro
