Seasons In The East

Welcome to Japan. A country of misfits, otakus, desperate housewives and businessmen on the edge. This is a collection of stories set around the changing seasons in Japan. A bored housewife contemplates self harm; a love doll obsessed otaku decides that true love is all that matters; a businessmen finds that his overnight stay in a hotel is more than the mundane and two teenage friends contemplate life and existence as the onset of a cold Japanese winter threatens to tear their friendship apart. This eclectic collection reveals the underbelly of Japanese society and culture, showing a different side to the land of the rising sun that you won't see portrayed in Geisha epics and wacky gameshows.
