If you like the works of Murakami Haruki, you will appreciate Teru Miyamoto｀s Kinshu (1982). Their novels are similar in the odd dynamics between male/female relationships that instigate profound changes for the main characters. Imbued with philosophical musings ˝Perhaps living and dying are the same thing˝ (Aki), nonetheless, Kinshu ends with clear lessons of hope and perseverance for the duration of this life. 소설 금수에 대한 수경님의 평.
