Insightful reviews
Morgen: I forgot about Banana Yoshimoto! Must keep reading Banana!
_incubus: era da un po' che volevo leggere qualcosa della yoshimoto.. perchè ho iniziato con
questo? lo ammetto.. mi piaceva la copertina *-*.
Ok ora che ho dimostrato al mondo la mia idiozia (T.T) passiamo al libro.. sei racconti.. mi sono
parsi tutti molto belli, molto delicati, ognuno dei protagonisti ha un segreto, un particolare
accaduto che ha segnato la propria vita e che aspetta il momento giusto per riaffiorare; tutti
n'isoddisfazione di fondo che li condiziona anche se inconsciamente e che poi prende forma in
una scelta ben precisa che potrebbe cambiare la loro vita.
Il libro prende il titolo dal secondo racconto presente, anche Lucertola ha un segreto come tutti
gli altri, un segreto che la fa soffrire e che ha determinato tutte le scelte della sua vita e che
aspetta la persona giusta per essere svelato.
L'altro racconto che mi è piaciuto particolarmente è l'ultimo: strana storia sulla sponda del
fiume.. e forse mi piace ancora di più perchè l'ultima parola che lo compone è 'speranza'.
-Anche il rumore del fiume arrivava con una risonanza fantastica come se non fosse il rumore
dell'acqua ma il suono stesso della notte. Avevo la sensazione di esserne così avviluppata da
non capire nemmeno più da dove venisse il vento, se da un posto lontanissimo o a un passo da
me. Era una presenza impressionante.Chris: I do enjoy reading Japanese fiction, especially that fiction that stands on the fringes of
fantasy and reality. Haruki Murakami is a master of this, with his weird underground people and
border universes. Banana Yoshimoto is equally skilled, writing exquisite short stories about the
minor strangeness that one might encounter in life.
About a strange shapeshifting creature that rides the train, trying to tempt salarymen to leave
their lives of dullness and predictability. A woman who can heal with her mind, but finds that it
takes a little bit of her soul away each time. A man who creates simple metal amulets that
absolutely radiate with the quality of amae, that unique Japanese concept of total immersion in
a greater unconditional love.
In her afterward to this book, she says that all the stories she chose were those about hope,
and the utter terror and exhilaration of finding hope for the first time. Hope, she believes, is not
something that we are born with. It is, rather, something that is presented to us, something that
comes to us by way of a small change, an insignificant alteration in our reality that gives the
glimmering of another way. And that can be a wonderful thing, as so many people say, or it can
be utterly repellent. Each case is unique, and this book is a group of six stories about the rise of
hope and what can come after....

Jeridel Banks: Banana Yoshimoto's books are packed with surreal images, own interactions,
and drama contained in a shell of a book. Lizard--a number of brief stories--is no longer this
book. in contrast to Kitchen, N.P., and Asleep, Lizard lacks personality development, tale
development, and climax. In every one story, Yoshimoto tells you the tale instead of permitting
you to event the story. It feels toward a teenager's journal: now not plausible and never
memorable. in the event you like Yoshimoto's books, you could bypass Lizard. you will not be
lacking anything.
